Modem Question....

I personally have the ECI open reach modem which is then connected to my own Apple router....I am happy with this arrangement as it suits me perfectly.

 

However, I know someone that is newer to PN service and they were given the all in one hub modem/router....they have ordered an open reach modem to split it up and use a different router to suit their needs better too, but was wondering if there is any configuration needed on the open reach modem?  or is that just a plug n play device that auto negotiates the incoming fibre connection and then the router needs the PPPoE login details?

 

Thanks

Yep, that's right
