You can remove the Sky SR203 completely if the TP-Link has a WAN ethernet port which I believe it does. All you need to do is plug an ethernet RJ45 cable between the ONT and the TP-Link AC2300 WAN port, and the setting that you have chosen on the TP-Link should just work with DHCPv6 PD.

Correct ethernet directly into wan/internet port of tp link should work . We are lead to believe all skys network will work with those settings

Okay thank you for clarifying. So I currently have an ethernet plugged directly from the wall into the WAN port on my AC2300 with the formentioned and pictured settings, but not getting internet. The router is showing internet status as 'Connecting'.

The wall? Surely you mean plugged into the ONT box if you have full-fibre (FTTP)?

Directly from the wall? Is this a g.fast mastersocket or do you have a larger open reach modem in the house

This is what it's plugged into, it's the yellow and black Ethernet:

That has been the main point of confusion. From dsl modem too possible gpon and now possible g.fast.

Re: Sky Fibre RJ45 compatible modems?

Yeah I'm getting rather confused. I dont know what it is, the building was built in the last 3 years, and the white box on the wall is where everything comes into my flat. The 'Fibre Cabnet' isn't much help either, it's litterally a bundle of CAT going through the building.

We have to wait for the photo to be approved for further comment, just to check what you have installed. The photo will take a little time to approve.

Thats a Openreach FTTP ONT you have so as @mae-3 said you should be able to plug the TP-Link router directly into the ONT and not use the Sky hub.

There you go. Those settings should work with tp directly plugged in

Re: Sky Fibre RJ45 compatible modems?

It seems to just be stuck at 'Connecting'. I've rebooted, checked the logs and can't find anything

The only thing I can suggest is leaving the TP-Link switched off for about half an hour and then switch it back on. Also, it would be worth replacing the ethernet cable from the ONT to the router just in case it is faulty?

 

If that doesn't work factory reset the TP-Link router and start the setup process again on the TP-Link router.
