I switched to PlusNet FTTP recently and used the VLAN settings on my UniFi Cloud Gateway tea but it didn’t work until I removed the VLAN settings so can also confirm they are not needed.

From your first post. It's just the reverse of what you have. UN&PWD for FTTP, UN,PWD,VLAN for FTTC.Thanks, good for the confirmation. Their advice and website is not correct with the settings I was told were needed. I did ring them up and let them know.

Always been the case
<however>
In the early days of FTTC when routers didn't have VDSL modem chips, Openreach provided modems for you, these did the VLAN element so you only needed UN&PWD. Some people keep one of these modems in a draw just in case (yes I have 2).
When the routers progressed ot having VDSL modems that's when needing to VLAN tag on the routers started to become a thing, it was similar earlier with ADSL needing VPI/VCI as well.
Custom firmware on it as well?You are describing what I have had for almost ten years of FTTC....

In fact I remember buying that Huawei branded one from eBay as it was better at the time that the one OR provided.
