https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Broadband/Cudy-M3000/m-p/5350530#M587656 <P>Hi. Is anyone using the above router or any other Cudy router? It's supposed to be able to replace the useless Sky one, but I'm having trouble getting it to connect as a standalone. I think it's to do with&nbsp;DHCPv4 Option 61 and I can't find a reference to it in Cudy's blurb. Thanks for reading.</P> Thu, 20 Aug 2026 11:47:46 GMT eb155 2026-08-20T11:47:46Z https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Broadband/Cudy-M3000/m-p/5350530#M587656 <P>Hi.

While the DHCPv4 Option61 works on all lines the simpler DHCPv6 PD method works on all City Fibre lines and over 80% od Openreach lines. Thexsecond method does nor requireca log-in string.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>If that doesnt worl I believe your router support Open WRT which I think can be congigured to support Option61.</P> Thu, 20 Aug 2026 13:13:50 GMT https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Broadband/Cudy-M3000/m-p/5350623#M587681 Chrisee 2026-08-20T13:13:50Z
