Archer D9 on ADSL

Hi,

Cannot use quick setup on my ac1900 TP link router. Only option is I ‘want to configure the internet connection myself’.

Change ISP to ‘PlusNet’
VPI 0
VCI 38
PPPoE
Then my username and password for plusnet

Save all that and dsl comes up as disconnected flipping back to ‘initialising ‘with dsl modulation type ‘obtaining’.

@only1symo  I would have thought you wanted a connection type of PPPoA

I have a Archer VR400 which works well.

Definitely PPPoA for ADSL - PPPoE is for fibre.

Re: Archer D9 on ADSL

Tried ppoa and no joy.

might have to ring dreaded customer support.🤔
QuickStart guide suggested changing to g.dmt and ads for dsl connection, neither has worked.   I might try updating the firmware too.   

btw it is model v1 of the d9.

Re: Archer D9 on ADSL

Have you looked at https://static.tp-link.com/res/down/doc/Archer_D9(EU)_V1_UG.pdf ?

In the manual set-up you can enter the name of your ISP - if Plusnet_ADSL is available, use that.

If only Plusnet_VDSL is available you will need to choose 'other' as your ISP.

I wouldn't update firmware or mess with minor connection parameters - at least until you have a working connection.

Have you entered the correct user & password details?

BTW - get a ethernet connection working first before bothering about wireless.

If you mean Plusnet customer support then good luck with that!

I assume that you have seen this. https://www.plus.net/help/broadband/broadband-connection-settings/

Update 23nov2019.

 

updated the firmware and it now looks like the screenshots from the manual.  Attempted to use quick set up, but it hangs on testing connection.

will attempt manual setup Sunday evening.

Re: Archer D9 on ADSL

There is an emulator for the router here: https://www.tp-link.com/uk/support/download/archer-d9/?utm_medium=select-local#Emulators

With the firmware update this replicates my router interface.

 

oh and I have checked my username and password by logging into the PlusNet members area.

Re: Archer D9 on ADSL

So no further joy.  Settings below.  It just seems to stop on the connection.  Might just Redbox back to amazon.
