VDSL modem

[talbyfish]

• For Fibre (FTTC) connections, you'll need a router with a built-in VDSL modem or a separate modem and router. 

  Deos the R3 have a built in VDSL modem ??

   

  trying to set up r3 without using the plusnet router aswell.

   

  thanks

The best thing for you is to consult your ISP's website and see if they offer a Bypass solution behind an RJ45 WAN router!

[talbyfish]

is that a yes or a no?

[Krush]

The R3 offers a PPPoE and VLAN connection. Simply enter this information either via the initial setup or via the WAN settings... PPPoE username/password--- And advanced settings: VLAN 101 or 0!

you legend.

 

now lets see if i can get ping optimizer to work, I have been having to cut my speed down fromm 1gb to 150mbps to stop lag spikes

It's just a router but it does have PPPoE & VLAN so you should be able to do it. 

Set your speeds manually and adjust Congestion Control manually instead of relying on the test which isn't 100% reliable at the moment.

Got it working but same as with plusnet router attached, have to slow speed right down to stop lag spikes

So with your expected speeds set you can't eliminate it just by reducing Congestion Control?

I use a site called pingcanbeusefull.com

i have tested the ping  at on 100% 80% 60% 40% and 20% of download speed.

I have to take it down to 20% before i get the desired results, see below:

These tests are done doing a speed test on another devce which only reaches 250Mbps 

Tests are fine when streaming on another device its just downloads.

video didnt work

Previously did you have the R3 in the DMZ on the Plusnet?

Have you got any devices in the DMZ on the R3 or made any custom rules like in Internet Rules etc?

I've given you Early Access to see if that improves it for you: https://forum.netduma.com/topic/58424-new-r3-firmware-dumaos-40645/
