Samknows Whitebox and Talktalk Hg633 Router

Has anyone managed to get a whitebox up and running with their Talktalk router? I'm on my second whitebox, despite connecting everything as the instructions details, the qss light remains flashing never turning solid?

Cheers

I haven't got the instructions to hand but I've had a whitebox connected between either a Netgear or Asus router and my Netgear switch for three years without any obvious problems so it could be something specific to the TT router.

Just to check which sockets are you using on the back of the whitebox?

The WAN port as per the instructions. Have a single ether net running from the TT router to the whitebox and have plugged all other Ethernet cables into the whitebox but no matter how long I leave it they never connect to the Internet.

Does sound like it's something to do with the router. Do you have another you can try? Where are you in the SW?

Sorry for the late reply, somehow missed your response. This is the second talktalk router I have tried it on. The first developed a fault a few weeks back and a replacement was issued.

I'm in South Wales fella.
