Sky LLU / Different Router


[link to this post]
 
Just tried using a different router on sky, got my username and pass from the internet, but for some reason it wouldn't connect up, it said the authentication didn't work, i am on sky llu, will this service work with any router?.

Hi Tom

having read your post I thought I would try my Draytek Router 2820N, using https://www.cm9.net/skypass/ to retrive my details and using these settings,

The settings required for Sky are-
Username and Password
Encapsulation: PPPoA
VPI/VCI: 0/38
Multiplexing: VC
MTU: 1500.

I'am on my internet with my Draytek 2820N

Hope this helps you keep posting on your progress please smile

Kenneth

I don't think i could change the multiplexing and MTU in the router, the only thing i could change was the VPI/VCI which i had set to 0/38, maybe this router doesn't support the things the other person in the other post said it had to, for it to work?.

I also have the option to add a mac address from the old router to put in my draytek one, If you have that option try it out. BTW what router do you have ?

Hi,

LLU went active in my exchange this time last year. The router Sky sent me connected via MER. However I have been able to replace the sky router with a Netgear DGND3700.

These are the settings pulled from it:

VPI 0
VCI 38
Multiplexing Method: VC-BASED
Encapsulation: PPPoA (PPP over ATM)

Login info I'm using was generated from a site im not sure I can link here but its mentioned on this topic: http://www.skyuser.co.uk/forum/technical-discussion/...

Is there a way to get the 2504n router to work with another isp and not just sky?.
