Switching from a Huwaei DG8041W to Sagemcom

dboat — Tue, 18 Mar 2025 10:54:45 GMT

When I switched to fibre I was sent a Saemcom router but the Huwaei DG8041W router seemed to be doing just fine and has been working for some time. Something has come up and I need to port forward ports 80 & 443 apparently there is an issue with this on the DG8041W. Can I just switch the routers without causing any problems with connections? I am aware that I will have to change the WIFI passwords. The Saemcom does not seem to have come with a power supply does this use the same one as the DG8041W. Can I switch back to the DG8041W if the is an issue?

You can switch router. Not sure about the power supply from the DG8041 working with the sagemcom, but any issues and you can swap back.
