Amazon received packets with RT-AC66U, equal unpacked, connected and ... no input mask for Telekom dial-up data. Well, that we had earlier times. Started Setup Assistant on the router, wait PPPoE set username from line identification, T-Online number, user number assembled @ t-online.de behind and enter the password of the subscriber data in the password field. Next clicked and ... no connection. Internet wizard starts the connection detection again. If you have a lot of time, this little game can go any way. Here it is not so much to find this on the Internet. I luckily came across a forum was discussed in the VDSL. There was also talk of VLANs and that one would need a VID. More Search then brought to light that you can enter this in the router if one is on the side with the PPPoE selecting a check mark on a box at the bottom of the page that allows Advanced provider settings. Yeah, a step further, tick set, a Selector opens, select Manual, go to other fields and a few of them allow the entry of VIDs. According VDSL people in the Forum must VID = 7 set for the Internet of the Telekom (Prio 0). Other providers want VID = 2 or 34, as the case may be. In the VIDs for IPTV and VoIP I registered nothing. The other details were set properly by the last run, but now ... is still lacking. Interestingly, the router need only again to restart before it has digested the entered data is correct and the connection built. Now then went but at least before the Internet through the router to the LAN port 2, one must indeed can appreciate small achievements. There remained the establishment of wireless networks and the Fritz box 7270 for the IP / DECT telephony. Here plus a few tips:
Give the 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and 5 GHz WLAN different SSIDs. Then you can choose the device, whether you want to use 2.4 or 5 GHz. My laptop was looking at the same SSID that is always the 2.4 GHz out, probably because he suspected there the greater bandwidth. At 2.4 GHz, a fixed bandwidth is set up in us because Nachbaschaftsstörungen in the near field "only" 130 Mbit / sec, two floors higher still 5 to 65 MBit. In 5 GHz, he starts with only 34 Mbit, then turned but the high speed test on 300 Mbit, probably a low-power and bandwidth saving feature of AC technology, which has the same SSID my Lappy konfusioniert. Now it's class and still sinds the top floor some 130 MBit at 5 GHz and download load.
The AVM 7270 I use a Fritz Powerline modem the first floor. With him I have the Wi-Fi turned off to the ASUS WLAN not pull down. From 7270 I use only for my desktop LAN and IP telephony, as well as DECT. For this to work properly, I had to configure the 7270 as a stand-alone router in the home network, not as an IP client. Otherwise the telephone does not work so easily, perhaps because the ASUS then VoIP routes on its LAN port 3, instead of forwarding it to the 7270. As a router you get the whole Internet, including VoIP.
Well, what got the whole thing? Stable with good Internet bandwidth throughout the home and garden, flawless telephony and no further complaints of other Internet Group in the House. Thanks ASUS! The speedtest.net rates are: 104 Mbit down and 49 Mbit up with the MacBook in to the router, confirmed by downloading a Linux distribution with> 10 MB per second (!). 3 Mbyte / sec between the upper floor with two reinforced concrete slabs. Goes well enough through the stairwell. 65 Mbit / sec, and 7 MB / sec behind the 7270 on Desktop in Vista. This is on average twice as fast as before. I still paid 139.90 for the router and I think it is worth every euro. And I still do not use all of his other cool features ...
Oh, why then he gets only 4 stars? Because it is compared with Fritz boxes considerably more difficult to get him at the telecom connection up and running. Can indeed change with future firmware releases yet;)
