Re: PPPoE username and password

Hi. Here's how I've managed to get sky full fibre going on my old TP-LINK TD-W9980:

 

  • Connection type: Dynamic IP
  • Enable IPv4
  • EnableIPv6
  • IPv6 Autoconfiguration Type: DHCPv6

SAVE SETTINGS AND VOILA!

@Martin1937 glad that worked for you but the DHCPv6 PD option does not work on every line as it depends on who made the exchange equipment so it isn't guaranteed while the DHCPv4 Optionn 61 method works on all UK lines.

I'm on openreach in NORTHERN IRELAND. Also that router so old

and I can't even see DHCPv4 option 61 in it. I've been struggling for three hours today because sky router failed to show up on installation day🤦‍♂️
