VX1800v cannot connect to Sky
Just bought a VX1800v
Cannot get it to connect to Sky broadband (UK) I currently have a VR2100 which is working ok, but I cannot get the VX1800 to work.
I have tried the quick setup with the Tether app, SKY(MER)_VDSL - but, I don't get the option to add a username & password, and then there's No connection.
Tried to do it with a laptop connected via ethernet, but in the Quick Setup ISP list I only have the option of Plusnet_VDSL or Other. Yes, I've tried 'other' and that doesn't work.

Not sure if you seen @Sunshine's post, the beta firmware fix should be available within the next 2 weeks. Fingers crossed, looking forward to using this new bit of kit and resolving my Double NAT issues 👍👍👍

To add to this, I currently have the VX1800 working as a router (but not as the modem) by connecting it to the Sky modem/router via ethernet, I am unable to set up a mesh network, as in my extenders settings it says that the main router does not support OneMesh. I have RE220 & RE605X extenders.

Hi, please check if you enabled EasyMesh on the VX1800v
