Can U use Plusnet full fiber without the Plusnet Hub and direct connect mt Deco X55?

Hello All

Im currently a Sky broadband customer and due to their router config (DHCP Option 61) you can connect a Deco x55 direct to the BT Openreach ONT.

BT broadband can do this so wanted to see if Plusnet did - im about to move providers as im committed to the Deco x55 Network and Plusnet if that works will be where I move to.

Can anyone confirm please?

@AKWatson as long as the Deco supports PPPoE for its internet connection, then it can be used with Plusnet.

Given that BT broadband also uses PPPoE , it shouldn't be a problem.

Sorry to be pedantic but it is spelt "fibre".
