NotThamesWater-
It was somebody on here...
I seem to have got it working but this is all way above my pay grade as i have no idea what LAN/WAN/IPV6/PPOE/DCHP/Lease mean (nobody needs to answer that)
but I clicked some IPv4/IPv6 buttons mentioned in this thread that didn’t quite match up to the UI for my Modem.
https://community.three.co.uk/t5/Broadband/FYI-IPv6-Prevented-VPN-Connection/m-p/14851#U14851rebooted a few times and tried the LAN1 socket not LAN2/WAN on the 5G Zyxel and the blue light didn’t turn to red.
I hate the hours wasted on getting this shit to work, time for beer...
Mr_Smyth
was it @TW or @aggi who had their linksys shizzle locked down?
I had my Three5G Zyxel > Linksys MX5500 mesh fail yesterday and i think an auto update of software might have borked it?
have had to reset the Zyxel back to factory setting and use router mode as it’s the only way to get the app to connect and check the service, it has a 5G signal so presume the linksys are at fault though the app would connect to them but there was no internet??
do they update themselves? going to try setting up passthrough mode on the Zyxel and see if they play ball. I’m the IT department here and my skills are limited.
Edit: it’s not playing ball, the Zyxel is defiantly in pass through mode, firewall is off (as recommended) and I have checked the short ethernet cable between that and the Lynksys and that’s working fine, the linksys app says I have no internet. not sure of the next steps/things to change?
