Whilst you do not need a new router, you will need another LAN cable to connect the router to the new ONT. This replaces the DSL cable that you currently use.


Comes in the box with the Hub 2 router. At least, it always used to!

Re: Using LAN cables with Full Fibre

So I have had the Full Fibre installed and have the new router and Ethernet cable with a red end, and I just set it up myself as I didn't receive the new router before the engineer came to install the full fibre. And here I cannot access BBC iPlayer using an Ethernet cable off the new router. Any suggestions?  The notification I get on the TV screen is: App not available and it is the same for Channel 4 and 5, but I can get YouTube and Amazon Prime. 

I am adding this query on to my previous post as it is connected so I hope you all see it!

Thanks

Re: Using LAN cables with Full Fibre

I've fixed it!

I looked on the BBC iPlayer troubleshooting page and it suggested turning off the TV completely and restarting it - and that has fixed it!   I should have remembered that one - restarting things. So no need for replies.
