Model: XX230v  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 0.5.0 3.0.0 v6066.0 Build 241120 Rel.6499n

I don't want to use the router as a DSL modem. I only want to connect it to my home network to use it as a Wi-Fi hotspot and to utilize the router’s own functions, such as the VPN server.

I have configured the router's LAN and Wi-Fi. It works as a Wi-Fi access point, but the router indicates that it does not have internet access, so I can't use its built-in services like the VPN server or NTP servers

Hello@lontano ,

Thanks for getting back to me.

Generally speaking, it is not recommended to install firmware provided by unofficial personnel and unofficial channels.

For how to set up the xx230v as a wireless router, please refer to BBA GPON_User Guide (start from the page 17)

Hello@lontano ,

Welcome to our community.

 

XX230v is a customized device specifically designed for local Service Providers. Its software is tailored to meet the unique requirements of these providers, ensuring alignment with their specific needs.

Due to the specialized nature of the firmware on your device, our ability to provide troubleshooting may be limited. We recommend contacting the technical support of your Service Provider who supplied the device, as they are best suited to provide the necessary assistance for your device.

  @lontano "Is it possible to flash an alternative firmware onto the XX230v DSL modem in order to repurpose it and use it as a standard router?"
