I am on FTTP(ONT with NBI) with a regular sky box. It's a big house so I'd like to install a couple wifi APs and plug a smart swith and run multiple cables across the house. The sky box is quite limiting for such endavour.
From what I understood I can use my 3rd party router, with some tweaks and requirments. However, I wonder what would be a setup to have provider's router ready to be pluged in, for the cases when I need support from them(line goes down(farmers rip the line time to time) or somethign being throttled etc). You know they have to put you through a list of steps before they escalate issue to a higher level of support(reset router, disconnect all devices, reinstall your OS, empty your bins etc). So, I'd liek to desiign a rig that would allow me quickly switch to the providers router. Preferably, it would be great if the rest of the network wouldn't go down or disconnected, so I assume it has to work akin to like load balancers work, where I either swith manualy to provder's router or when the main(3rd party router) is switched off the provider's takes over.
This migth all be too complicated. So I'd be just happy to hear what 3rd party routers you use that are compatible with SKY network(e.g. can autentificate through PPPoE(at leats as it shows to me in the router connection status) and other DHCP/PV6 james bond type of stuff).
Thanks in advance
