Does anyone know or have experience of this router for use with SKY FTTP.

Ive just moved from BT to SKY and horrisifed that my Netgear RAX10 doesnt work with SKY.

Im currently using the absiolutely crappy sky router/hub and there seems to be issues with it. Very slow loading web pages and apps that take ages to get the data or timeout though speeds are fast.

Im either looking at the above or possibly getting a unifi express, not sure if the unifi express supports SKY FTTP either.

Thanks for any help with this

@VirtualPostman

The xt8 should already come with skys authentication protocol

On wan settings screen select auto ip and look for client identifier (option 61) and enter

anything@skydsl|anything

And you should be good to go
