Magnet DSL with alternate router

Decdawreck

Hi I have Magnet connection down in Limerick and the service is fine except that the wireless from the router only seems to work properly in the room with the router. I have a spare eircom router that gives a far better signal and i am wondering if there is any way that i can connect this up instead.

Or is there anything i can do with the current one??

Cheers.

Is this Magnet DSL, or FTTH?

It is a DSL line.

ADSL+ 2 and FTTH not sure about dsl

Split from FTTH thread, as it's irrelevant.

If the router is an ADSL2+ capable modem, then it will work. Just enter the settings that Magnet should have supplied you with. You'll need to consult the router's manual to see how you enter these, and you'll get no support from Magnet for it.

This thread has not been posted on in a while but I wanted to share this somewhere for anyone that may need it. This is the configuration required on a Juniper SRX to connect to a Magnet ADSL line:

at-1/0/0 {
description DSL;
traceoptions {
flag all;
}
mtu 1496;
atm-options {
vpi 0;
}
dsl-options {
operating-mode adsl2plus;
}
unit 0 {
description "Magnet Broadband";
encapsulation ether-over-atm-llc;
vci 0.35;
family inet {
dhcp {
client-identifier ascii 00:0a:12:00:12:12;
retransmission-attempt 6;
retransmission-interval 5;
}
}
}
}
