Good evening. I am hoping a networking guru can help me out with what is likely a simple problem.


 


I have just swapped to 2Degrees from MyRepublic UFB and am in the process of configuring the modem. When I set up a WAN, everything seems to go OK, and I get a good connection. Approx 5-10 mins later I start getting DNS errors which I can fix for 5-10 mins with a modem reset. 2Degrees requires PPoE, VLAN 10. What am I missing here? Any help very much appreciated.

Thanks

I'm probably about to humiliate myself here, but as I understand it, the Orbi is only a router, you need it connected to a modem.

Oh my... what an idiot.

I thought as much when I bought it, but the instructions said otherwise. Guess I didn't read them correctly...

Thanks everyone, really appreciate the help.
