2830n to BT Openreach Fibre was created by georgebell
Can anyone please point me in the direction of some kind of "Dummies Guide" to allow connection of a Vigor 2830n to replace the ISP's supplied Netgear N300 Wireless Router WNR 2200?

I'm getting the usual story from BT and ISP, "It's not our router".

I hasten to add that the Vigor was working very well until we were moved to fibre.

Try a reboot & both BT OR & 2830, should work
