Model: Deco XE75  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.2.9 Build 20240724 Rel. 39578

Hi,

 

I just changed internet service provider to Singtel and was issued an ONR (not ONT).

I had 2 units of Deco XE75.

 

Main XE75 is placed beside the Singtel ONR.

Mesh XE75 is placed beside the TV that is in living room.

 

I connect my main XE75 to the ONR and both XE75  were able to get internet.

 

I connect Mesh XE75 port 1 to Sony Android TV and it has internet.

I connect Mesh XE75 port 3 to Singtel IPTV Box but it cannot get internet connection.

 

 

Singtel ONR - Main XE75 )))               ((( Mesh XE75 - Singtel IPTV

                                                                                     - Sony Android TV

 

I read that the following article.

 

https://www.tp-link.com/sg/support/faq/1538/

 

Note b in red says:

For the ISP Singtel, Please verify if you were issued with ONT before configuring the IPTV setting advice, IPTV setting is only required for Singtel Optical Network Terminal (ONT), and is not required if you are given Singtel Optical Network Router (ONR)

 

 

I tried to do IPTV setting on Mesh XE75 but it does not work also.

 

These are the setting.

IPTV/VLAN - ON

ISP Profile - Custom (i tried to set to Singapore - Singtel but it did not work as well)

Internet VLAN - OFF (if i turn on this and ser VLAN ID to 10, VLAN Priority to 0, i do not have internet for every device that is connected)

Port - Port 3 of Living Room Mesh XE75

IPTV VLAN ID - 20 (found from internet)

IPTV VLAN Priority - 4 (found from internet)

 

 

Please help advise how to get internet connect for the Singetl IPTV TV Box. Thank you.

Hi, welcome to the community.

On the Singtel ONR, Did you have separate LAN ports and a separate IPVT port?

 

For the ISP Singtel, Please verify if you were issued with ONT before configuring the IPTV setting advice, IPTV setting is only required for Singtel Optical Network Terminal (ONT), and is not required if you are given Singtel Optical Network Router (ONR)

-From what I learned from the Singtel IPTV service, there is a dedicated IPTV port on the Singtel ONR, and it has a separate connection from the internet access. In this way, when Deco is connected to one of the LAN ports from ONR, it only extends the internet connection. There is no IPTV data passing through the Mesh system.

 

Wait for your reply and best regards.

Thanks for the welcome.

 

From your message, I did a quick trial.

 

There are 4 Lan ports on Singtel ONR.

Lan 1 10Gb

Lan 2

Lan 3

Lan 4

 

There are no delicated IPTV port on singtel ONR

 

I took the singtel box and plug to all the 4 ports via ethernet to try. The IPTV on the ONR will light up and singtel box got internet connection from all 4 ports. So I guess my ONR do not differentiate IPTV from internet.

 

 

Singtel actually provided me with another singtel wifi 6 router, model WG660242-ST, from Arcadyan.

 

When the field engineer set up for me with this Singtel router, it is connect to Port 4 of ONR. Singtel TV Box is connect to this wifi router tirelessly and TV Box works.

 

Now I am trying to replace this Singtel Wifi 6 router with my Deco XE75 main + mesh system.

 

Thanks.

Hi, Thanks for the feedback.

I will wait for your further update.

 

By the way, If the IPTV box works directly to any of the LAN ports, maybe for the IPTV mode on the Deco, it could use "Bridge mode", not 

IPTV VLAN ID - 20+IPTV VLAN Priority - 4 (found from the internet).

Best regards.

Trying to replace the Singtel wifi 6 router is what I am doing now but failed.

 

I am unsure how to use bridge mode for the Deco iptv.

 

Are you able to advise.

 

Thanks.

Hey, It is just to choose "Bridge" under the ISP profile after enabling IPTV. Basically, it means no need for extra configuration for the STB box.

Best regards.

Hi David,

 

I tried bridge but choosing bridge mode only allow the Singtel box to be connect to the ports of the main deco router.

 

I actually wanted to connect to the port of mesh router that is placed in another room.

Thanks for the update.

When under the "Bridge Mode", if we temporarily connect the STB box to the main Deco, would the Singtel TV box get any internet connection?

 

Have you ever checked with Singtel how to configure IPTV service if there is an extra router behind their ONR?

Wait for your reply and best regards.
