Hello
Preamble:

BT infinity in last house. Used an asus router modem to distribute wired and WiFi signal through house - worked fine

Moved to new property November and Wifi struggling. Purchaser of last property wanted modem, fair enough so left behind


Used BT SmartHub (HH6) but WiFi signal struggling distant parts of house/outbuildings

Bought Google Wifi (GWiFi) to improve signal

Works fine but separate IP address issued by GWiFi so not able to see some devices

Its seems to be a double NAT situation

I bought the Vigor 130 as a modem and placed in bridge mode but still not able to it to work with GwiFi
Configuration is

Modem -> GWiFi-> switch

which I thought would work. Tried various configurations but after 3 hours decided to give up for time being
xyl/her indoors told me stop playing on the computer all afternoon !

would welcome ideas/thoughts/solutions in case other members have similar problems.

thankyou in advance

Paul

Friends of mine have Google wifi working with an original OR modem no problem.

I suggest you reset the 130 to factory default (NOT bridge mode) and then set up your ISP access as per https://support.google.com/wifi/answer/6246630?hl=en-GB

Thank you for your reply and I will try this later today

Happy new year

Paul

Oops, silly me

Now working and just to help anyone else in the future - an explanation

SETUP is as follows...

Connected VIGOR 130 -> GWiFi ->switch

Follow settings in GWiFi app

essentially

Disconnect LAN cable to GWiFi router
Setup PPOE settings in GWiFi - (in my case bthomehub@btinternet.com and password bt)
reconnect LAN cable, save settings and all is well

Thanks for all that assisted
