ASUS XT8 settings for Full Fibre ONT

barton3112 — Thu, 25 Jan 2024 14:36:10 GMT

Hi all, can anyone help with the setting I require for my ASUS XT8 Router

I have used this before with Sky with no problems and have just changed to Plusnet today.

The Plusnet router does work and the new account is setup but I want to remove the plus net router and use the ASUS one on its own.

Any help would be really appreciated

Thanks

@barton3112 you will need to change the WAN settings to PPPoE and enter your Plusnet username & password.

Details are here https://www.plus.net/help/broadband/broadband-connection-settings/ , use the section 'What settings should I use for a router connected to a BT Openreach modem' (the ONT is effectively a Fibre modem.
