Today is the big day - after 10+ years of Vodafone/TelstraClear I shift to 2D broadband. I got the notification that the switch has happened overnight. I am using my own modem (Ubiquiti USG) and after a much troubleshooting, can't seem to get a connection. 

 

The friendly support lady at 2D ensured me that all is fine with my fibre line.

 

 

 

 

I realise that not having gone with the provided modem I am on my own. Attached are a few screenshots with the settings. 

 

- I have triple checked my password by logging into the 2D broadband user account site. 

 

- Note that partway through the troubleshooting process I called 2D and got a static IP - no difference (but I assume I still leave PPPoE as the authentication type)

 

- Removing the DNS settings makes no difference. Nor does changing to Google DNS or OpenDNS

 

I wonder if anyone here with Ubiqiti USG could shed some light? 

 

Thanks in advance!

Try dropping the DNS servers and let the USG resolve them itself, also have you done a full reset to rule out any other issues or settings that could be still in the USG?

And I've just update the DNS IP addresses to the new ones.

Great, now I can't get into my Synology NAS which is running the Unifi controller....argh.

Thanks for the suggestions - I'll report back once I get into the controller...

No luck. I have restarted the controller, router, ONT, switch, etc. Also no luck with no DNS entered.

 

 

 

I have reproduced the settings from Ruphus - no luck. 

 

 

 

Now - what is the meaning of the rightmost LED on the ONT ('Internet')?

 

edit: Also, is the authentication still PPPoE for a static IP?

Yes, your settings are correct.
