Sky fibre - require login?

[Purdy]

Moved into a new property, Aquiss unable to activate the OTN as Sky (previous owners provider) have not yet deactivated.
For some reason this can't be disclosed to Aquiss when it is going to happen which is beyond absurd but anyway...

Anyone know if you need a sky specific login to access the current internet or there is no authentication, i.e. can just plug in my own router and should work?
Zen who I was previously with had a log in required on my router thinking perhaps not.

Currently at the mercy of Aquiss checking daily if they can activate the OTN which is a complete ********

i had my own router and used login as something@skydsl and any password on option 61

Any router that will request a IPv6 prefix delegation will work without any further authentication

Thanks. I have a. USG3 so checking the attached I'll need to do a similar set up?

Setting up IPv6 on UniFi Security Gateway

Not as painful as you may expect!

Seems prefix delegation size is 56 so I'll give that a go when back round there tomorrow

Didn't work (prefix delegation I had set as 56 after this also)

Googling around it seems I may need to go into the CLI and set dhcp-client-identifier (Option 61), couldn't see in the controller web interface.
Worst thing is there is zero signal to troubleshoot on mobile data at the property, having to do it when I leave

Would be nice if the previous owners/Sky had actually just got it cancelled for moving out, genuinely bonkers system

Do you have anything that isn't a USG? A dumb TP Link device or equivalent with IPv6 enabled will generally work fine.

I’ll maybe head to curry’s and pick one up - think this is grand?

Trying to confirm with previous owners when they actually cancelled sky, a lot of effort if the ONT is deactivated Monday , but then not sure sky will send deactivation request in a timely manner anyway
