![]() ![]() You can test other nodes but it much harder to get them fixed because it might not be in your network. If you do see a issue here then you can try ping to the router IP and ping first ISP router. If you do not see loss or very large latency spikes here you have a very different issue that might not be a actual network problem. Start with the standard leave a constant ping run to 8.8.8.8. This is to avoid using ping as a denial of service attack against a internet router. The key one is routers in the path can be set to either ignore ping/trace traffic and give it lower priority if they are busy transferring other data. It is more of a automated way to do a test but it is very easy to see problems that are not actually problems. However I was unable to get this to work with my UDM so if you have this rg your experience may vary.Winmtr is not a very good tool you have to actually understand what the tool is testing. I used to work for AT&T and now work for another ISP and have heard from one of our vendors that the SFP in the bgw-320 can be removed and placed into their router and service will work fine. I now have mine set to pass though as well as most people do. ![]() I have since moved when I posted this comment and now live in an area with xgs-pon and was given an all in one bgw-320 rg. Then disconnect once service is restored. If you lose it you’ll need to reconnect AT&T rg and let it authenticate again. That’s it leave it connected and unless you lose power you will keep service. If you do, just disconnect the AT&T rg from the switch. Make sure you have internet on your router. ONT > dumb switch ( I used a 5 port netgear) plug your att router into the switch as well and wait for the lights to turn green ( authenticate ) plug in your router to the switch as well. It’s very simple to bypass.Ĭlone the Mac of the AT&T rg to your router. I have a UDM pro se, but any router that can clone a Mac will suffice.Īs far as guides, I’m not sure. Hoping there is a solution! Thanks for the help. I’d like to avoid plan B where I buy another router if possible. I’m sorry if this is something that has been asked a million times, if so, I’m just not finding the right thread. I’m not certain, but I think my wifi devices are still using my AT&T router for their DHCP leases, because they don’t seem to show up as devices with DHCP leases in PiHole or in the dashboard, and my PC seems to be unable to get a lease for an IP at all. Turn off ipv6 everywhere (AT&T router, my computer, PiHole)įollowing these steps, the Wi-Fi will work on my devices but they don’t seem to be going through PiHole and my PC that is hardwired to the AT&T router stops connecting to the internet.Set the PiHole Gateway to 192.168.1.254 (my AT&T Router?).Assign my PiHole device a static IP on my AT&T router of 192.168.1.111.My research suggests the best solutions are to either let PiHole manage my DHCP (plan A) or buy another router (plan B).įollowing guides, I have tried the following steps: I have AT&T fiber and the router won’t let me change the DNS settings. Hello! I’ve done some searching but I can’t seem to find help on the problem I’m stuck on. This wasn't what I wanted, but looking at some of the features of new routers convinced me it was worth the money. I'll set the AT&T router to pass through to the router I purchased and configure the DNS from there. Thanks everyone for all the help.ĮDIT: I've caved and purchased a wifi6 router. I didn't want to shell out for the new router, but if anyone else with AT&T fiber stumbles upon this thread, I wanted to document what ended up working best for me. ![]() EDIT 2 SOLVED: I've setup my new WiFi 6 router, set the DNS to the PiHole, and all is working as intended. ![]()
