TP-Link WiFi 6 OneMesh Router, AX3000 Connect direct to ONT

Hi

 

I am looking at buying a TPLink Archer AX53 (AX3000). Could I plug this direct into the ONT? Had far too many issues with the Sky Max Hub and support can't seem to help. 

thanks

Unfortunately, TP-Link routers usually do not support DHCP Option 61 and therefore usually cannot be connected directly to the ONT. Sometimes TP-Link routers can be used with DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation (PD) to authenticate with Sky but this isn't guaranteed. The best routers to use with Sky and the most popular are Asus routers which perform very well.
