Currently on Vodafone cable and finally fibre is coming to the street soon. Cable is fine but I think  the faster uploads with fibre will be better than cable.

 

Since I currently use my router for cable with a number of routing rules to handle proxy services, I would want to be able to use my own router with fibre. Is this possible?  I currently have a Asus RT-AC66U router.

 

From memory Fibre (as does Vodafone GB cable ) uses VLAN and for Spark fibre VLAN10?  Is this possible?

 

Thanks

Yep you're totally fine to use your own router with Spark.

 

VLAN 10 w/ PPPoE (any user / password as long as it is not blank)
