Third Party Router Help

Hello

 

My dad currently has Sky Full Fibre 500 (ONT on the wall, with a SR213A-02-UK-wht router).

 

I have an old Linksys WRT3200ACM flashed with OpenWRT that I want to use instead.

 

I have tried with the Client ID as the "[email protected]" in hex, or whatever it was, and I don't get an internet connection (but I do get a public IP).

 

I am seeing conflicting methods on the forums.

Can anyone advise if this router is suitable and what method I should be using?

This router is suitable for my personal Vodafone connection, using the same ONT.

@Phil0705 open wrt has the ability to support the necessary DHCPv4 Option61 with the string anything@skydsl|anything

 

Or the alternate DHCPv6 PD which soesnt require the string which works on the majority but not all Openreach fibre lines.
