Hi, I was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction on setting up an Openwrt router for Sky Fibre, just got a Linksys WRT AC 1900 up and going with the Openwrt firmware and really want to replace my rubbish SR102.

I have got a HG612 as modem so that's ok, but the only guide for setting up Openwrt on Sky Fibre is 3 years old, will it have changed at all?

For reference this is the guide I'm referring to

http://www.skyuser.co.uk/forum/sky-broadband-fibre-help/50483-generic-open-wrt-sky-fibre-mer-guide.html

Thanks

Looks fine

So the section with the firmware doesn't need to be updated?

Sorry for asking, it's just a really old guide so I'm making sure it's all current.

Is there any set up needed on the HG612?

Thanks

I think the guide is current irrespective of the firmware. The modem is just a modem - as long as you have the latest firmware for G.Inp support.

Sorry, I was referring to point 2.7 in the guide about setting up the OpenWRT router.

It refers to an old firmware used on a Sky Sagemcom router, does that need updating, or is the old one ok?

That field isn't checked so it doesn't matter what's in it

Thanks, I'll be giving this a go shortly. Thanks for your help.

If any one else is interested in this, I can confirm that the guide worked.
