Getting FFTP full fibre installed tomorrow and not 100% of the configuration needed in the VR2800 for it to work?
Anyone got experience of the configuration setup?
I understand a cat 6 between BT Terminal and WAN port on router. not sure internet connection type or VLAN Id number?

@infinite for FTTC you will also need vlan ID set to 101

I have a TPLink Archer VR2800. I have upgraded to full fibre today and am trying to get my router to work with full fibre rather than using the one supplied by Plusnet. I have done the following things and I'm facing no internet connectivity;
Set the operation mode from DSL modem router mode to Wireless Router Mode (I did this because it was expecting me to connect to a phone line which I no longer have)
Connection type: PPPoE
Username and password same as works on the new plusnet router.
Vlan ID to 101
However, it will not connect. Any ideas?

@midnite VLAN ID is 'none' - it is not used with a Full Fibre connection.

From a google search.. " Does The Archer VR2800 work with fibre broadband".
The Archer VR2800 has one DSL port and 4 ethernet ports, but no fibre port, to make it work, you need buy a fibre modem, so that we can connect it to the fibre cable provided by ISP and connect the modem to VR2800 and get internet.

Thanks @shutter . Although, AFAIK, the ONT is a 'modem'.

I'm happy to get a new router etc. What do I need to look for in terms of it supporting full fibre.
Would something like this https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08C3VRM6M work? It has the lan2/p6 port on there which I believe is necessary.
Thanks in advance

and here he is!
@midnite The vr2800 should work fine in wireless router mode. Connect the ONT to lan port 4 (wan port ) configure pppoe and as@jab1 says , disable vlan id
If it doesn't work then try a factory reset and start by setting wireless router mode first.

The white box BT will have installed in place of your master socket.
