Using old Router as Bridge

[#1]

Hi, I'm curremtly waiting for full Fibre to be connected to my property and as I have a Full Fibre router I was wondering if I can use the old router as a Bridge or Access point ... if so what are the user name and password to access this router ...

Which Hub are you referring to? When you say 'bridge mode' you are looking for a modem for your new router?

The Hub One does not support 'bridge mode' but the Hub two does.

To make revert a Hub two to a modem

Connect to the Hub Home page, navigate ->Home -->Advanced settings --->Broadband ---->Bridging -----> make enabled Yes.

The Hub Two lights will now be a pink/purple colour.

Connect any LAN port of the Hub to the WAN port of the router.

The router internet connection needs to be PPPoE, username is youraccountname@plusdsl.net using the members centre password. There is no requirement for a VLAN the Hub provides that.

@Dan_the_Van  The op is expecting to get Full Fibre so bridge or modem mode does not apply,

The ONT is effectively the FTTP modem. I think the enquiry is about configuring a Plusnet hub to be a wireless access point.

@RealAleMadrid I

I did ask if they are looking to use a Hub as a modem, so they have the information if required, just trying to be helpful!

Yes I know all about ONT's thank you.

Edit: Waiting for Full Fibre suggests they are still using a stand alone modem or modem/router.
