What our TalkTalks settings to setup a different Routers

[I_Have_Questions]

Hi there,

I am trying to set up my own TP-link router as the TalkTalk ones DHCP failed. I have looked through the articles and entered the recommended settings but getting no where. Anyone managed to use their own router and do you have the required settings?

What are the other choices in the dropdown menu where it says PPPoE? Is there an IPoE option, or maybe DHCP?

[I_Have_Questions]

Yes it's in the options to select in  ISP provider

Does TP-Link actually say it is compatible with TalkTalk's ADSL service?

[I_Have_Questions]

Thanks, that was the article I followed no joy. Do TalkTalk have to accept the connection or do something at their end?

[KeithFrench]

Tick ADSL not VDSL (Fibre To The Cabinet).

Then follow the Non-fibre broadband section below:-

I'm on copper broadband not fibre. It's an Archer, line straight in from the filter. Multiple options in settings PPPoE etc

I am going to need more information then. What model TP-Link is it, and what package are you on? Does TP-Link say that it is compatible with your TalkTalk network?

Thanks but I have bought it now🙄

What make/model of TalkTalk router do you have? If it is faulty it can be replaced free of charge.
