Team,

I expect this is lame but I have searched everywhere to find out what goes into the DHCP 61 Option box when setting up the D700 (automatically) with Sky Fibre (UK).  The closest I have got is that it's the login and password that you get from the Wireshark extract.  However, I have used this perfectly successfully in my DSL AC68u but as two entries.  If this is what goes in the box on the D7000, could someone please confirm the exact format?

Thanks

Option 61 box takes username|password

Put it in as I have shown above. There is a full description on the link below it is for a draytek but applies equally to the D7000 , you will also need option 60 and spoof the mac address of your sky router too.

I've been told that the 60/61 input is not required on the setup. All that is required is selecting sky from the drop down menu and inputing your details from wireshark. I don't have sky so can't confirm.

:) Trust me I'm a doctor.... ( not really! )

Look at the attatchment.

Option 60 should look something like this 7.16a4N_UNI|PCBAFAST2504Nv1.0

Option 61 should look something like this 4xxxxxxxxxx3@skydsl|g*************k , note the '|' where the username and password are joined.

And of course the WAN mac address from the existing sky router, NOT the LAN mac address that is used for getting the above details from the password generator; is it a generator or an extractor?

I'm also a Sky user.

I wonder why they chose a Lantiq on the D7800 but a BCM on the D7000. Is there actually a rule when deciding between a BCM and Lantiq, Lantiq for short lines, BCM for long lines or is it every line if different see what works best sort of thing. Iv'e always gone by match it to your cabinet chipset

Hi

I expect it is just whatever chipsets they can get that works out cheapest at the time, or they are supplying an ISP or telcom with a similar product and that customer has specified Lantiq and Netgear can get a good price by adding to the order to produce their own branded modems.

No one can say for absolute certainty what works best with what line, and Lantiq chip in one modem could behave differently in another depending on how well the circuit is designed, and if that design happens to favour a particular line.

Lantiq is used in the ECI modems supplied for VDSL in the UK and these seem to inter-operate with no issues at all, so no reason to believe the Netgear will differ drastically to how the ECI modems work.

Regards

Phil

Bt when supplying the modems appeared to provide ones that matched the DSLAM.

The only thing I have to say on that is the modem/routers I have bought with Lantiq chipset have both had problems, the Netgear I have now is Broadcom and I don't have any problems, my DSLAM is Broadcom.

Make of it what you wish.

That isn't the case so much now as HomeHubs are all the same regardless of the DSLAM, and self install VDSL will see all sorts of flavours of chipsets used by ISPs.

I'd personally rather have Broadcom as well though, and it works great on an ECI cab that is Lantiq.

All Homehubs aren't the same, there's a HH5A and a HH5B for example.

Are the chipsets different?

Perhaps the discussion of the D7800 should be split to a separate thread.

I think all current Lantiq devices are based on the VR9 family, the VRX268 or VRX288 chips, which have been around for a few years now.

The D7800 uses the next generation Lantiq chip, VR10 family, it's the first device I've seen that does:

Quote from: d7800_gpl_source_list.txt
IPQ8064(CPU) + QCA8337(Switch) + VRX320(DSL) + QCA9982(5GHz) + QCA9880(2.4GHz)

The DSL firmware contained within the Netgear firmware image is:
dsl_vr10_firmware_xdsl-07.07.04.03.00.07_07.07.01.08.00.01.bin

HH5A - Lantiq VRX268
HH5B - Broadcom

Would that suggest that BT try to match DSLAM and Homehub?
