Vodafone Fibre customer - Replace Gigabox?

Obskure · 2021-08-10 15:34:34

I'm a new VF Fibre customer. The Gigabos is doing its job but I want a mesh wifi system in place. I can't figure out if I can replcae the gigabox with the likes of a Nest WiFi router and extender or not. If not Nest WiFi then what? You can't do anything with the Gigabox, so replacing it with a better router and native mesh…

If not Nest WiFi then what? You can't do anything with the Gigabox, so replacing it with a better router and native mesh network would be my preference.
Any suggestions? All welcome! TIA

You just enable bridge mode in the Gigabox router and it will hand off all networking to the mesh router.
