Hi to community!

i would like to ask what is the best WAN settings to use for my R3

From my provider i have, 

PPpOE fiber 1gb down and 100mb up

the router i have is FRITZ!Box 5530 Fiber, cause it is voip, the router doesnt support bridge mode or DMZ. it only has, pppoe Passthrough and Port Sharing (witch i have enable both of them).

What is the best settings for my R3 WAN, PPPoe or DHCP. (i have my provider PPpOE user & pass) .

thnx in advance.

If you have the Fritz handle PPPoE and use the port sharing option (Open this device completely for internet sharing via IPv4 (exposed host)) then you'll be able to get full speeds through the R3

this is what i have done to fritz... for this IP (R3), open everything for IPv4, IPv6 is closed for both of them, from what i have read from the forum.

but in my R3  WAN settings what Connection Type i should use? 

DHCP,
Static,

or
PPPoE

Ok ok, so DHCP in R3, and what ip I get I will use it for the fritz ip4 exposed host. 

And as i can imagine, this is the optimal settings for R3 with fritz routers without having double Nat types etc etc.

 

Thanks in advance again, sorry for my bad English 🙂

So the IP in WAN Settings on the R3 will be the IP you want to use on the fritz. You won't get a double NAT doing this so all good!

You're English is good!

am i complete crazy that i think with PPPoE settings on R3, the internet is super responsive and stable? i have in R3 all off except, QoS.

I m not gonna lie I Google what a hop is/mean, but I got it 😂.

One more question, sorry for the spam. 

I can use PPPoE via R3 WAN as I say and works perfect. but when I go to advance settings and adding VLan on with my provider value of 835. My connection goes offline (I have done modem reset, still no). 

Is something I m doing wrong? Does it have an actual point/reason of having this on?

You generally add the VLAN as it is required for an internet connection but as you have a connection without it you don't need it
