Zennon Posted April 9, 2017 Posted April 9, 2017 Member RADDY1993 has done this. A quick search and I found many threads on how to extract the user/pass http://www.skyuser.co.uk/forum/extracting-sky-router-passwords/ This one looking the best. http://www.skyuser.co.uk/forum/extracting-sky-router-passwords/59028-simple-tool-extracting-username-password-your-router.html
BIG__DOG Posted April 9, 2017 Posted April 9, 2017 follow zens link. Once you get your unique un and pw all you need to do is buy your own modem (not a modem/router) and hook it up to your socket. connect the netduma, type in your un and pw you got into the wan pppoe section and you are up n running.
Burger100 Posted April 9, 2017 Author Posted April 9, 2017 Cheers for the replies was thinking of replacing the hub with either the tp link archer d9 ac1900 or the bt openreach huawei echolife hg612 any thoughts on them please ?
BENORMOUS Posted April 9, 2017 Posted April 9, 2017 Cheers for the replies was thinking of replacing the hub with either the tp link archer d9 ac1900 or the bt openreach huawei echolife hg612 any thoughts on them please ?The openreach hg612 3b model are great,do you know what the fibre cabinet looks like on your street?is it a huwaie cab?
Burger100 Posted April 9, 2017 Author Posted April 9, 2017 Not to sure to tell you the truth all i know it not long been put in and grey in colour many apologies, and can i just say big thanks to you all for your input on this thread taking time out to help others is a virtue some people seem to forget about and a simple thank you can make a big difference to some. So THANK YOU.
Burger100 Posted April 9, 2017 Author Posted April 9, 2017 Just to add after a bit of digging magenta code look up found out it's a huawei cabinet.
Zennon Posted April 9, 2017 Posted April 9, 2017 A HG612 will do nicely on that cab. Raddy will help you out if you get stuck at any point, PM him so he knows you need assistance.
Burger100 Posted April 9, 2017 Author Posted April 9, 2017 Thank you Zennon and apologies in advance to Raddy
Burger100 Posted April 13, 2017 Author Posted April 13, 2017 Hi Raddy hope you don't mind apologies if you do but i am waiting on delivery of the HG612 3b modem (did try to pm you). Can you please give me any advice with the set up etc.If this is a problem to you i fully understand sir just thought i would ask before i attempt it myself or rather fling it out the window when i no doubt fail spectacularly.
Zennon Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 You may have jumped the gun as you need a router also as listed in this how too. https://www.avforums.com/threads/how-to-replace-sky-sr102-with-another-router-sky-fibre.1939217/ I have tried also to message Raddy his PM's must be off I will change the title to draw his attention.
bagsta69 Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 Raddy has his settings to not accept msg most of the time.
BENORMOUS Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 If you use the hg612 you can turn off the modem within the sky hub,all you need to do is connect ethernet to lan port 1 of hg612 and other end to bottom ethernet port of sr102 this then doesn't use the modem with the sky hub,sky use mer authentication which locks you down a little when it comes to using other routers but it still works with the openreach modem,the setup would have to be hg612>sr102>netduma
Burger100 Posted April 13, 2017 Author Posted April 13, 2017 Cheers folks as always there to help very much appreciated shall give your suggestion a go benormous sir thank you.This is what I like about the duma army the more educated titans helping us mere mortals, keep the good work up.
