Lightspeed Broadband

I got lightpseed installed today, but I haven't got my router working yet, but they have not send me any cofnig info. I'm paying the £6 extra for a static IP address also.

Sadly stuck on the eero router (that they provided) till I get the settings from them, I emailed them for the info, after I called and a guy said he had to get the tech team to let me know (which apparently can take 48 hrs).

SO I emailed the sales guy to try to speed it up.

sorted it today, had to run VLAN as 911. I found a post online on reddit advising to run that and it should work, and lolw and behold... it did.
 
My lightspeed experience is terrible (and great) for IPv6 they only give a /64 which renews every 300 secs and also cycles the given address, regardless of your duid and/or prevent release (which then triggers that newwanipv6 script that freezes my net for a minute). I've had to just go ipv4 only on my opnsense box and then its great. I really miss Zen and their informative instructions for using your own setup, my communications with LS have been less than stellar. I send them a question about their IPv6 implemantation saying how they aren't meeting standards, rejecting opnsense asking for a /56 (thats what they claim they hand out)(even their eero only gets /64) and i get a response weeks later saying dhcp. thats it, just dhcp. I love the speed and it's stable with a good ping, not sure I'm staying with them though. At least this forum helped me get most of my settings right.
