Issues Setting Up RT-BE88U

Good Evening all,

 

Hoping you can help with this one, trying to setup an Asus RT-BE88U but cannot get an internet connection.

 

I have FTTP connection with a OpenReach ONT in the 10G WAN port and a back up 4G connection into the 1G WAN port. Dual WAN enabled with failover enabled (primary set as the 10G WAN port). Only the 4G failover gets a connection.

 

I've searched through and found a bunch of threads but configuring the same has not yet yielded results.

 

My current config is below (sorry if they're not in the right order!). I have tried to change the query frequency between normal/agressive.

 

What am I missing?

Thanks in advance for your help,

ANSWERED! Apologies, forgot to come back and update.

 

Apologies, I failed to mention to you lovely people (and also to Google this sooner), that I was setting this up in a local club after their Sky router was failing to handle the number of connections and they wanted something relatively consumer but that could do some business-y features so this was a good fit.

 

Which means that this is a Sky Business connection which uses PPPoE, not DHCP option 61.

 

Per this thread: https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Broadband/Sky-Business-Digital-Voice-and-Unifi/td-p/4730371

 

I updated the details and et voila, it's connected.

It can sometimes be as simple as letting your IP lease expire on Sky's end. Have you tried just leaving both your router & the Sky router unplugged for 1hr?
