You don't need to input the 'correct' sky username and password as that is only needed for your media accounts (tv/phone etc).  Your sky details for the broadband connection are in another form completely and are sent internally within the hardware.  You used to be required to 'sniff' the username/password with an application such as wireshark from the equipment that was supplied by sky however, there is no need for this now...

For the username and password, use the following and then wait 5-10 mins for the connection to establish;

username:   abcdefgh@skydsl

password:    1234567890abcdef

Also, ensure you're using ' Sky(MER)_VDSL' from the ISP list.

Hi 

I am using Skyfiber from BSkyB and honestly I don't have knowledge on theses things, every time I need any guide I just google it and follow instructions.

My sky hub router is not strong enough so after googling few thing I found out X6 is one of the best router so few week back I bought Netgear Nighthawk X6 for performance to use it as an main router and sky hub as an modem or so!

And then when I started setting up things everything was upside down and then I found out my Sky Hub don't support any third party routers so after another googling session I found that TP Link ADSL/VDSL router are compatable and many people also mentioned it's is simple plug and play, if not use Wireshark to extract ID/PW to use it, so bought TP-VR2800 2days ago and followed instructions 

1. Plug and play didn't work

2. Wireshark didn't work

now I have spent £££'s on routers and don't know wot to do, a detail guide is much appreciated and apologise in advance for inconvenience,

Connected😀 but the upload and download speeds are terrible and it won't connect to 2.4GHz

I need a book that says Skyhub/TP-Link for Dummies.
