New Router: ASUS DSL-AC68U with Infinity 1

TLDR; I have the DSL-AC68U and it is not detecting a DSL link.
Hi All,
My HH5 recently died and I got a replacement from BT but decided to get a new router anyway.
Aware that I need a Modem/Router Combo with VDSL2 support I went ahead and purchased the ASUS DSL-AC68U: 
http://www.asus.com/uk/Networking/DSLAC68U/
Reading many comments from people who pretty much just plugged it in and it just worked I was fairly confident I could do the same.
However the router is not detecting that a DSL cable / link is connected.
I have tried multiple different settings including username, WAN mode, DSL mode everything I could find online but I am simply not getting a DSL link.
I have tested the router at a friends house, although the circumstances are different as they're using a different provider and are not on a Fibre Optic connection - they still got a DSL link almost right away.
At this point I'm kind of stuck as to what could be causing this behaviour and would appreciate any advice.  Also if anyone else has this same router with BT Infinity 1, I'd like to know how it has been physically set up?  I.e. 
Wall Socket > Standard Microfilter (Phone line and DSL sockets) > DSL Cable > Router
I ask because the router also comes with a separate microfilter that is 3 DSL sockets, 1 on one side labelled "LINE" and two on the other labelled "PHONE" and "DSL".
Thank you,

Hi ng1987,
I too have just got the Asus and it is a grand bit of kit. I have IPTV channels working on my DSL-AC68U. Below is my settings. Note: the DSL-AC68U does NOT have the Enable VPN + DHCP Connection option. My YouView box is wired into Port 4 (I don't believe this matters on the Asus though).
Choose IPTV STB Port: None
Use DHCP routes: Microsoft
Enable multicast routing (IGMP Proxy): Enable
Enable efficient multicast forwarding (IGMP Snooping): Enable
UDP Proxy (Udpxy): 0
Can you confirm you have tried the exact settings above?

  • Asus DSL AC68u on ADSL?

    Hello, I am thinking of getting an Asus DSL AC68u soon (https://www.asus.com/uk/Networking/DSLAC68U/) but i need to know if the router will be compatible with Sky ADSL before I buy it. Can this router run on Sky ADSL? I am aware that I may have to do a software update/tweaking and I will do that if required but I just want to know that this router will work with Sky ADSL. And I do not want people posting links to other routers, I just want my question answered. Thank you

    I googled the model and ADSL and didn't get a lot of hits but mainly mentioniong fibre but then I found a picture of the box which does mention ADSL so you should be ok. Click the pic to enlarge.

    The latest DSL driver version is 5.5.1.128_B_A60901 HwVer:T14.F7_0.2 on mine whereas yours is 5.5.1.128_B_A60901 HwVer:T14.F7_0.1 although on the Asus website there is only 1 version so not sure why yours & mine should differ.
    I'm far from an expert on these matters but I doubt that an SNR Down of < 6dB or the -2.5dbm for power up is good. My power up is 6.5dbm.
    With DLM in effect continous connection really is required for the stats to improve. DLM will remake the connection if it changes anything so leave things alone, too many reboots will result in DLM thinking there is instability and drop the speeds.

  • DSL AC68u not working with sky ADSL?!

    Hi, I am in serious frustration here. Today my Asus DSL AC68u arrived and I've been trying for about 2 hours to get it working. I have 2 major issues:
    1. The DSL line is reported to be "unstable" in the web interface and the DSL light keeps going out on the router itself.
    2. The internet light does not come on AT ALL and when I try and go onto a website it does not work.
    Please help, I have gone through the setup process twice, I tried setting up manually and letting it detect settings automatically as well and I have no luck. Remember, I am on ADSL, not fibre. My old Sky SR102 was working fine before I set it up with no issues whatsoever and I don't know what to do. Any ideas? Thank you.

    Thanks for the help people but I have doscovered I have problems. Just spent ages on the phone with Sky broadband and there are problems with my service but going to have to wait 72 hours whilst they perform tests and look in to it. Can anyone explain this to me please as I cannot get my simple little head around it.   Sky told me they have boosted my line and I am now getting 7mb, something I have never had and still don't.   I logged in to my router which also confirmed 6969kb and yet my internet is so slow its cringe worthy.   I cannot load Youtube videos or play simple games on facebook and if I perform a broadband speed test with different website they report I am getting around 11 to 12kb. Which is right, was also being offered fiber which I cannot afford but whos to say I wont have trouble with that.

  • Trouble replacing Westell 9100EM router w/ Asus RT-AC68U

    I got a new router (ASUS RT-A68U) and want to replace the Westell 9100EM that came installed w/ my FiOS package.
    I have the new router connected, and it can get to the internet just fine.  It's gui says it's connected to the internet, and I can use it's onboard diagnostics to ping google.com, do a tracert, etc.  However, none of the devices I connect to the new router can get an IP address.  My WIRED connection from the PC to the router is unable to get an IP, even after ipconfig /release and /renew (Windows 7, from command line).  My mobile phone can connect wirelessly to the new router, but is also unable to get an IP address.
    Are there some settings I need to manage in order to have it automatically assign IPs to connected devices?  I've set the new router to use google's DNS servers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.8.4).  Do I need to use verizon's servers first?  Is there a change to the subnet mask or anything else that I'm missing?
    Thanks to anyone who can offer some advice

    Reset the router to factory defaults by pressing the reset button,
    By default the router is set up as 192.168.1.1 so enter that address in a browser and connect
    The default login is uerid admin and password admin
    you should be able to use Quick Internet Setup QIS
    Your fios account will give you an automatic dhcp address and no userid and password is required for that
    at this point your router should be connected to the internet.
    Using the main manu select lan and make sure the dhcp server is turned on (it's the radio button toggle at the top), should be by default and it should be handing out addresses on the 192.168.1 subnet.
    On your machine run cmd and type in ipconfig /all - certify that you have an ip address of 192.168.1.x
    If you've set the router dns to the google dns servers after the router reset then ipconfig should also show you that your dns servers are what you entered on the router if so
    All is OK an you should be up and running
    You'll probably want to change the default wireless settings, how to do that is inb the user manual.
    There is no need to reference the Verizon dns servers

  • Network Errors Adding New Router

    Hello,
    I posted this in the iChat forum earlier today but I think this would a better forum to ask this question. We were using a D-Link DI-604 Wired Router for about 5 years until yesterday when we purchased a new D-Link EBR-2310 Wired Router. Ever since connecting the new router, about every 15 to 30 minutes in the console log on my iMac 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, I get the following errors now:
    Jun 12 17:31:57 <computer name> kernel[0]: AppleYukon2: 00000001,00000000 sk98nif - deadmanCheck - nothing received, resetting chip

    Jun 12 17:32:07 <computer name> configd[14]: AppleTalk startup complete
    This never happened with the old router and I can't figure out what is causing this (I keep a close watch on my console log and I know for sure that this problem just started since connecting the new router). The new router is cascaded to an older Farallon 10Mbps ethernet hub (exactly the same way the old router was set up) so at first, I thought the errors may have been due to the fact that I had the WAN Port Speed of the new router set to "Auto 10/100Mbps" causing my iMac to (unsuccessfully) try to negotiate a faster port speed. On the old router, we had the WAN Port Speed set to 10Mbps and I never noticed any of these errors so I changed the WAN Port Speed on the new router to 10Mbps instead of "Auto 10/100Mbps" and we're still getting the same thing happening.
    I've tried connecting my iMac directly to the router and directly to the cascaded Farallon 10Mbps ethernet hub and either way, it makes no difference. Our internet connection works fine but we get the odd error when sending a print job to our networked HP LaserJet with the new router. Does anyone with any networking experience have any idea what can be causing this? Is there a way to change the 10/100Mbps speed on the iMac itself rather than on the router?
    Thanks so much,
    Gerard

    Is there a way to change the 10/100Mbps speed on the iMac itself rather than on the router?
    System Preferences/Network/Advanced/Ethernet - Configure manually
    The book on this router at Newegg is that it works for some people, but others using Vista notice the router can't handle multiple users very well. Disconnects, slow throughput, resets. It's not a very costly router, and hasn't had a firmware update since 2007. Maybe Vista pushes it too hard?
    I'm just guessing that the deadmanCheck reference in the error is some sort of test to see if anybody is there and when the router doesn't respond, the Mac reset's it's ethernet chips.
    Since you've had so many problems with the programs, firewall and port routing, and incomprehensible tech support, you might look at one of the competitors products that can keep up with your equipment.

    you likely need to setup your router using an eathernet cable and a computer to turn on the wifi part and set an encryption level and password or the likes

  • Using BT HH3 as adsl2+ modem with ASUS rt-ac68u as...

    I have bought an ASUS RT-AC68u router to replace my BT HH3. Unfortunately I only realised when I unboxed it that it did not support ADSL2+ connection, which is what I have in the house. Currently my connection is phone line > Filter > HH3. I would like to use the HH3 as an ADSL modem and have Phone line > Filter > HH3 > ASUS router.
    My hardware is set up as follows:
    ADSL cable into ADSL port on HH3
    Ethernet cable from HH3 gigabit port to ASUS WAN port
    I have seen other posts suggesting switching off wireless and DHCP on the HH and setting up the new router with a static IP and DNS to the HH3’s address. I have tried this and unfortunately the asus router cannot receive an internet connection.
    Is there anything I am doing wrong or could try?
    The posts i got the above information from are:

    but I will try this anyway for now, So should i chose my ISP as static IP on the asus router?
    Skip any quick setup wizard, as its not applicable.
    Use manual settings and simply disable DHCP, and change the LAN IP address to 192.168.1.15.
    You will then need to access its interface at the new IP address.
    I am not familiar with the ASUS, so you are going to have to read the full manual, and work out how to change the LAN settings.
    Personally, I would just put it away until you get Infinity, and simply use the HH3, as you are not going to gain very much, unless you are using it as a wired wireless extender to another location in the house.

  • New router: cp1525nw wifi install fails with vague error message

    Product:  HP Laserjet Pro cp1525nw
    OS:  WIndows 8.1
    Hardware:  Asus laptop
    Recently received new router from Verizon (FIOS), model FQG1100 BHR4 Router
    Purchased printer in 2012.
    Printer was working with old router; it won't communicate with new router.
    Over four days I have repeatedly removed the printer from the laptop and tried reinstalling using the wifi method. The install instructions say to run the CD, choose wifi, connect the USB cable when prompted, configure, remove cable when prompted.
    When I attach the USB cable the configuration starts, but it either times out ("taking too long") or fails with vague message  about not finding the product. I am never prompted for an SSID.
    I tried a USB install and that worked; so the USB cable is good. 
    Windows File & Print Sharing is enabled.
    I've tried re-setting the printer to defaults, and ensured the wifi menu says "ON" for wifi.
    I ran a wireless network test report:
    PASS for wireless on, wireless working, and Security.
    FAIL for Network Name (SSID) Found.
    NOT RUN for: printer settings consistant with wireless router settings, No filtering, connected, signal strength, other networks detected.
    Wireless netwrorks detected: 9
    I note the router label does not statE "SSID", but says "ESSID".
    I would appreciate any ideas for what to try.
    Please post here or send message to [Personal Information Removed]
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Last night I finally got it to work.  I removed the printer fully from the PC and rebooted. I turned off the printer. I ran a cable to the router (cable modem). I reset the router, which then assigned an IP address to the printer. I changed the security settings on the router to use WEP instead of WPA. I ran the HP printer setup program---and it finally presented me with the "provide SSID" screen.  The program ran successully. I printed a test page. I changed the router secuirty back to WPA2. I printed another test page.     I tried rebooting everything and printed again.  I also tried removing the cable and then printing again---the printing failed.
    In short, I needed to do two things:  connect a cable and change the router temporarily to WEP for the install.
    In my case, my printer is close enough to the router to run the cable.  A little disappointing that the true wireless won't work, but I can print wirelessly from my laptop. 
    I've seen how a lot of people have had the same issue I had, and how HP is of no help in solving this issue.  I'm convinced the printer has a flaw.  I hope my posts will be of benefit to a few people having the same issue.

  • HP 6520 won't scan with wireless connection and new router

    My printer scanned fine before.  Got a new internet provider=new router and now I can't scan scan anymore.  The computer is connected wirelessly.  The computer says it cannot communicate with the scanner.  Same if I try from the printer front panel, it says it can't communicate with the computer.
    The router seems like the obvious cuprit, but nothing in the router settings or manual suggest anything that could be blocking the scanner communications.  The router firewall is turned-off.
    Printing works fine, and I can connect to the printer through its IP address.  The user interface can see the printer status, check ink levels, everything.  Everything works but scanning.  I've re-installed software multiple times, tried turning off firewalls and tried HP Scan and Print doctor.  It's not much help.  
    I'm at wits end.
    -ETC

    Hello @etcottle , and welcome to the HP Forums!
    I see you are experiencing scan connectivity issues.  I would like to help!
    I would recommend powering down your computer,  disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, and remove the power from your router for 60 seconds. 
    After 60 seconds, plug the router back in.  Once the router has begun broadcasting, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar. 
    After the printer is on, re-run the wireless setup.
    I'd also suggest this document:
