Hi, I have a new Ubiquiti USG I’m trying to configure with a static IPv4 address for 2 degrees fibre. Need some help with settings please.

1. Can I connect the USG direct to the ONT and replace the FritzBox (eg. ONT -> USG -> switch)? Or does the USG need to be connected to the FritzBox (eg. ONT -> FritzBox -> USG -> switch)?

2. What are the configuration settings for the USG? Connection type = static IP? Static IP as provided by 2 degrees? What would the subnet mask and router values be?

See the tutorial here - https://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp?forumid=66&topicid=205740. Has all of the information you require.

1. It would be recommended to connect the USG directly to the ONT and terminate PPPoE via the USG. No need for the FB.

2. 2degrees static IP is applied on connection so you dont have to specifically configure the USG for this.

yep me too, works fine. IF you use the VOIP function then you can use the FB as a switch/VOIP base by disabling its router functions... it will still pass the VOIP line through the network but becomes a dumb switch.
