@jamesn123 sorry for bothering is there any difference with annex a and annex b on superfast with a draytek 130 many thanks

@cookiemonsteruk @8888charlie8888 

As far as I am aware Openreaches infrastructure uses Annex A physical connection but syncs over an Annex B connection. Therefore when looking for hardware on VDSL connections it needs to be Annex A.

E.g. My Openreach Huawei EchoLife modem is Annex A connection but currently showing a connection status of Annex B.

@8888charlie8888 

Any mention of client identifier option 61?

[8888charlie8888]

Dhcp option, then option 60 and option 61 both blank.  Also iaid/duid box unchecked.

@8888charlie8888 

Leave option 60 blank , don't click the uuid bit

Client identifier option 61 fill out :-

12 character asus mac address|last 6 characters of the same mac

In the format 

12345678abcd@skydsl|78abcd

[8888charlie8888]

I'm sorry but I am learning on the fly. Thanks for your patience. 

Just type 12345678abcd@skydsl|78abcd into option 61

@8888charlie8888 

That is the format. Best using the actual asus mac as it will be unique to you. You should find it on the back of the asus router

[8888charlie8888]

I have applied the mac code and it said it is complete.

@8888charlie8888

[8888charlie8888]

Not connected yet. 

[8888charlie8888]

Internet status connected. 

Then disconnected.
