I've got the HG612 connected but I can't establish a PPPoE connection via my my router. I've reset the HG612 and no luck.

TalkTalk isn't PPPoE it's simply DHCP - like a typical LAN connection.

[GigabitEthernet]

So how do I setup my Ethernet router running Gargoyle (based on OpenWRT)?

[phi2008]

Set the Gargoyle Internet/WAN to DHCP(wired) and plug your HG612 into the WAN socket I'd suppose -

This should do it

[GigabitEthernet]

That works. Thanks a lot!

The only issue I have now is that I cannot access the modems stats via the router. The Gargoyle documentation recommends to enable DHCP on the modem and then it should work but that stops the Internet from working.

Sync is a couple of Mb faster on both the downstream and upstream with the HG612 so that's good. There seem to be quite a lot of errors being displayed on the web UI of the HG612 though.

[phi2008]

With an unlocked HG612 you can just connect the 2nd LAN port to your network - for access to the GUI/stats.  I gave mine a static IP address via the web GUI so I always knew where it was.

[GigabitEthernet]

Is that the only way to do it? In the past I've been able to do it via one cable as Gargoyle has this feature built-in: maybe I just need to do some more tinkering.

Some more questions:

• Should I get Howlingwolf's firmware?
• How do I check if G.INP is enabled?
• How do I get those fancy graphs people are posting?

[roseway]

1. The Howlingwolf firmware is here: http://forum.kitz.co.uk/index.php/topic,14262.0.html
2. Log into the telnet interface and enter 'sh' to get to the shell. Then type 'xdslcmd info --stats' and look for any reference to Bearer 1 in the output of that command.
3. Use DSLstats or HG612_Modem_Stats

There seem to be quite a lot of errors being displayed on the web UI of the HG612 though.

Ignore the status as reported by the GUI. Basically it is wrong. The truth is told via a command line telnet session into the device.

[GigabitEthernet]

I've been tinkering and I think the only way to access the HG612 via the Gargoyle router is to get the HG612 to do the routing itself and to then give the Gargoyle router an IP address from its DHCP server.

Something seems wrong about this setup but maybe that's just me. Is the only way to make it work?

Looks like my line isn't enabled for G.INP!

[Chrysalis]

the talktalk device might be fine hardware wise, but I would not use as the modem (might be ok as router) because of downtime caused by their remote updates.

Looks like my line isn't enabled for G.INP!

I would say that interleaving *may* be applied by the DLM, and yes at the moment G.INP roll outs seem to have been halted.

[GigabitEthernet]

In order to get the master socket moved, TalkTalk would like to send a Qube engineer. Are they a part of Openreach?
