SKY Ultrafast Plus connected into Unifi USG

Hi, 

Can anyone provide gudiance on how to connect the SKY Ultrafast Plus modem into Unifi USG ( i assume in double-NAT set up)  and then into other Unifi gear. 

 

Oh and i have Sky Talk and therefore cannot not use the SKY Hub.


Thanks.

 

regards,

@Pawiter if you need Sky Talk you will have to use the Sky hub it is then a case of simply using an ethernet cable from one of the 3LAN ports on the Sky hub to the WAN port on your Unify unit. You are correct that it will be a double NAT configuration but you avoid complications around authenticating the connection which you would have if you connected the Unify to the ONT unit.

 

Couple of set up points on the Sky hub first is disable its wifi and secondly consider putting the Unify into the Sky hub's DMZ which bypasses the firewall.

@Chrisee Thankyou.

@Pawiter for the Sky Talk line to work the Sky hub has to be connected to the ONT. If you have Sky Q the main box can connect to third party wifi but Q minis will only connected to Sky wifi either from the `sku hub or the main Q box.
