New GIG1 Self Install

[Wolfclaw]

OK so switched from M500 to Gig1 saving 25p per month 🤑 , yeh I know, it all counts and VM don't have any loyalty to long term existing customers whatever OFCOM says, when contracts expire and you should be offered same deal as new customers, VM missed that bit of legislation. 🤓

After initial setup and config, switched to modem mode and connected to 2.5G port of Asus AX86U and from what I can tell, I've reached the limits of the Hub 4, praying for Hub 5 swap when and if it ever fit for purpose, to squeeze that little extra out of connection but would appreciate somebody casting eyes over configuration values.

( psst need a guinea pig for Hub 5, I'm free 😜 )

This running directly off the router.

Pretty much "spot on!".

You having any issues ?

[Wolfclaw]

Nothing so far, just wish I could really make use of the 2.5G port and get the extra speed from provision going to waste. 😭

Sadly can't bind 2 ports on router, as that's already in use by server and can't justify a 2.5G switch at the moment
