Replacing sky hub with router

Before posting this, i have searched this forum high and low for answers to no avail.

 

Ive come from virgin media which allows modem mode. Sky doesn't. 

 

I would like to use my router due to current poor WiFi range and more customisation on my network.

 

My router is asus RT-AX82U v2 and I have fttp

 

Steps ive taken:

 

-plugged my router into the ONT box directly.

 

-Set my router in wireless router mode,

 

-enabled option 61 and set username as anything@skydsl|anything

 

-I dont have option for vlan so ive had to put 101 in "VID" under IPTV settings in router

 

I live in UK so I wouldn't be using a pppoe connection as far as I understand.

 

My router reports that there is a problem with dhcp and I cant connect to the Internet.

 

Ive switched off the ONT  and router for 30 minutes and tried again but its not helped.

 

Please could anyone provide advice?

@Frezli Pictures will get through once they are cleared, based on my XT8 but will be very much alike settings wise!

Please note that i am not using the option 61 parameters as do not require through my fttp connection!

Re: Replacing sky hub with router

Your advice worked. Thank you 

 

All the posts I could find were saying add option 61...

 

deleted the option 61 as you mentioned, removed vid 101 from lan > iptv and it works

 

Copied your settings in the screenshots which were very helpful
