2830n Sky Broadband Setup was created by mark_s
Hi Guys,
Im moving from O2 to Sky broadband but obviously would like to keep my draytek in place.
Does anyone have a link / images for broadband settings please ?

Ive found this thread on skysusers via google
http://www.skyuser.co.uk/forum/sky-broadband/45888-sky-broadband-draytek-vigor-2820-2830-a.html

When ordering the New Broadband i did not ask for Fiber or Fiber Plus so i guess that does not mean a MER Setup ?

From what i have read i understand the following.

1. I can not use the Draytek until i have got the username and password from there router they send.
2. Extract from this site https://www.cm9.net/skypass/

? Would I have to clone the MAC Address in the settings also ?

Model Name : Vigor2830n
Firmware Version : 3.6.3_sb_232201
Build Date/Time : Sep 17 2012 16:18:48

Thank you for your links.

Im not sure if my connection will be MER ?
Im getting there new hub "wooooo"
But ive not requested a fiber connection so I dont know if I Will be MER or Not because I don't understand if MER is for Fiber Only.

So im looking for the sky settings with out MER as there is lots more current topics about MER.

Thanks in Advance.
