[re: RobertoS] [link to this post]
 
Thanks RobertoS

The company has ordered the router, but I'm planning to keep that as a spare and continue using my Asus RT-N65U

I assume at some point in the day I can update the username and password for the WAN link and I'll move across.

Do I just use my Member centre credentials for the WAN username and password ?

Thanks laugh

Thanks. The notes on PlusNets site, made it read like you only needed the username:

Connection Settings
Broadband Username/Login name [email protected]
Connection Type / Encapsulation PPPoE Always On


Once it's live I'll use my [email protected] and my member centre password.

Thanks

It's worth making the initial connection with your 582n, to prove it works. Ready for use as a backup if your Asus falls over in the future.

Note, the 15-minute wait (in the leaflet with the router) while connecting is true.

OK Thanks
Will do. 582n hasn't been sent yet, so there may be more questions when it arrives smile

I assume swapping and changing the router is not going to upset the line speed ?

Nope
The line speed is controlled by the modem only

I recently got sent a 582n, for reasons I won't go into, and it connected almost instantly.

Possbbly to do with the final setup of the Plusnet account being completed when you first went onto FTTC. Mine registered the PPP session being up almost immediately, but I couldn't access anything.
