You need to use PPPoE on the Duma to use the Openreach modem.

 

If you have a BT username & password use that otherwise use:

 

Username: [email protected]

Password: BT

Thanks guys thats worked.when i do tests on dsl reports i seem to get inconsistant and poor results.any advice on how to solve this?

To be honest I wouldn’t use dslreports mate, it’s really inconsistent. Download PingPlotter, ping twitter.com and set the interval to 2.5 seconds that will give you a far better indication of what is happening with your line.
