3rd Party Router’s with Vodafone Home Broadband 2023: ruclips.net/video/Hr1qgwL6p1I/видео.html
I just signed a contract to get Vodafonebroadband and I was looking for the router specs.
Thank you for this video. It seems the router is kind of basic but OK. I have a more advanced ASUS router wich is 6 years old but still has more advanced features.
Very helpful.
Very informative
Thank you for taking the time for this video. I have a question please. The WiFi schedule seems to not work very well on my friends Vodafone. My friends kid has also worked out they can just download the app and sign in as a guest. Due to them using an apple phone I can not hide the password from them. Long story, but impossible to control their access with the WiFi schedule. The question is please, can I with this Vodafone router set a schedule so the whole router switches off? Obviously then they will not have the password for the router admin as this clears every time you close the webpage which is not stored in the kids phone anyway. In your vid it shows the WiFi schedule but not the router schedule. On my sky router you can schedule the router. Unfortunately they live quite a way away and I can't just pop around there to check. Any help will be massively massively appreciated.
Hi,
Have you looked at the new Ultra Pro II hub yet?
Adam.
very good video - suggestion: a lot of reviewer's have a camera pointing at them so the face is visible - i guess this also helps the video getting better ranking.
This video is supposed to help others navigate around the settings and as such is perfect, maybe except him not recording his cursor - but it's a minor nitpick. You wanting to see his face makes you sound like a creep, you realise that?
I ditched my Vodafone router as the WiFi kept disconnecting. I changed to a TP Link Archer MR600 with 4G failover and a Grand stream HT801 SIP adapter for the phone, all works well and more reliable WiFi
It really sucks that they removed the option to manually change the WiFi channel on both frequencies on these routers, drives me nuts! Be interested to know if they've done same thing on their new ultra hub
They haven't changed it
Thanks for this video. A question about the DNS settings on the router - if I manually change my DNS via Windows Ethernet Properties but not on the router, which DNS settings take priority, the ones in Windows or the 'automatic' ones on the router?
If you change the DNS settings within Windows/MacOS/iOS or Android they will override and take priority over the router setting’s.
@@EclipseReviews That's what I thought but wasn't sure - thanks for confirming.
Hi, trying to setup a second router on one network, so the 2nd router is just an access point doesn’t connect to the internet only through lan cable to the 1st router they are exactly the same as this one in your video, but having issues like losing connection need video on how to do this if you can please thanks
hi ! I have therouter the H300s how can i share my internet from pc to this router via ethernet ?
Hi, i have a company called EDC renewables we fit solar. We are fitting solar and battery installation for a customer who has this system. The wifi dongle for the battery will not connect to the wifi. I am thinking that section 10.35 needs to be enabled for the dongle to connect with the router, Do you think this is correct?
10:35 refers to the backup WiFi 4G dongle can only work when plugged into the side USB port on the router (you have to remove the black plastic cover). This is a backup 4G just in case you internet goes down, you should not need to change any setting within the router. FYI - the USB 4G dongle will not work when plugged in to another device. If you device is unable to connect to the Vodafone WiFi then it may be to far away as it will disconnect devices if there are to far away or the signal is too weak, so a wifi extender may be required.
Hi. Watched the video which was very good. I am having an issue which I'm guessing requires a setting changing. I have setup the jellyfin media server on my second pc. It works fine locally but I cannot get it to connect remotely. I have emby on the main pc and that connects both locally and remotely. It has made entries in the ipv4 section for both pc ip addresses but jellyfin will not connect remotely. I looked at ipv6 it let's me put the port number and service in but not the device name and then says need device name. I cannot see it is a limit of the router as it works for emby but cannot resolve the remote access issue in jellyfin. Any thoughts
Hello what is the dsl status and the fiber status cause um paying for fiber 2 but my fiber status is inactive butvthe dsl one is active
Anytime I change my dns I feel like I my bro use gets a injection type rerouting virus. I forget the proper name for it. But it eventually comes to the point where when I search for something it comes back in Chinese or a completely unrelated result. Then a typical reinstall of windows and default the router brings things back to normal.
In short , changing my dns either on the router or a individual pc never ends up prosperous.
VPNs dns is a different story mostly positive ..
Just my 2 cents
Good video, thanks. Any idea why I cannot access the router over the internet using the assigned public IP address. I gt to a login page but it says my password is incorrect (when I know it is right!). Are there some settings that need changing from the default to enable this remote access?
Security of the router will sometimes block connections from outside the router for security. Best was to access is via the Vodafone Broadband App or using a VPN setup at home.
Hey I get the error msg , “Your ISP’s DHCP Does Not Function Properly” when setting up an asus with Vodafone. Is it because I don’t have a vLan setup? And could you go into depth on how to configure that please would help alot! Cheers.
I think a lot of people would find it very useful to see a tutorial video of how to change from the Vodafone router to a third-party router. It seems to me that it’s fairly obvious where the username and password goes, but I’m not sure about setting up the vLan. Is there any chance Such a video?
Hi.. How do you stop constant buffering... It only started approx 4 weeks ago...
I have an issue of it not letting me on the website can you please tell me what to do to fix this?
my wifi connection is way slower than the cable one, im getting 1000MBIts in and the wifi only 150MBIts. do you know how to check or improve this? cheers
I think they removed the feature to switch between advanced and basic, since I've been trying alot to access advanced mode to port forward. Is there anyway I can do this?
My router is still showing the option to change, perhaps you have different firmware. Sorry I could not be of more help
Watched the video helped a bit as im not tech savvy.. how do switch off 5ghz.. or change to 2.4ghz. Thanks
I was hoping to find the answer to this question also.
You should see the setting in your router menu: Choose 'Expert Mode' > Wi-Fi (Top Menu) > Wi-Fi Settings. The menu should show toggle switches to switch off either WiFi band.
But if you do not see this option then Vodafone blocks this feature if you have Super Wi-Fi .
Again, I watched the video in the hope that it would tell me how to turn off 5ghz temporarily so I can connect my smart devices. Seems a bit daft that, as you say, Vodafone blocks this if you have super Wi-Fi? Ergo, my various smart devices are now useless!🙁
Does anybody know are you better getting a 3rd party router or just adding a mesh system to the Vodafone router? Is there any better benefit with each system?
I would like to know the answer to this aswell. I'm not sure this would work with the Vodafone router.. TP-Link Deco X55 AX3000 Whole Home AI-Driven Mesh Wi-Fi 6 System
Have you got an answer on this ? I would like to know this as well.
@@francoishugo1 hello, I ended up getting a 3 pod TP link mesh system which works perfectly, only cost £100 on Amazon which sounds a lot but now when I change providers in the future I won't need to repair all the WiFi stuff. It's super easy to set up and you just plug it into the ethernet port of the Vodafone router. You also need to go into the Vodafone router app and turn it's WiFi signal off so it doesn't interfere with the TP mesh WiFi. I've got full fibre and an sometimes getting over 620 Mbps. I also changed the main ethernet cable between the Vodafone and TP mesh for a CAT 8 Ethernet cable which helped the speeds
Hope this helps
@@chrisdicko1683 appreciate the info! Very helpful.
You think that’s better than buying a TP link router and adding one mesh pod somewhere in the house?
@@francoishugo1 it's a TP link deco, effectively replaces the Vodafone router even though it's still connected. Works flawlessly
I accidentally disabled http-access to the admin panel. Any possibility to revert that, witout resetting the router?
Yes, if you login to your router via the web browser (chrome/edge) and goto: Advanced Settings > Administration > System (tab) - Under Local Access Config > Look for 'Authentication Method' and select the drop down next to is to 'Both' then click 'Apply' button. This will enable http and https
Hi mate, I've tried to reset the Vodafone router and no luck, Alexa and firestick works fine, but the ring door bell and chime won't connect, sorry for the late reply, I've been away, doorbell is at home, pls help
How do you change the router from VDSL to Wan mode?
I've plugged my Virgin Media Hub3 (in Modem Mode) into the WAN port and although it shows a Fibre connection it's not getting an IP address and hence not connecting to the internet.
What is dsl connect and fiber connect cause your is inactive and the fiber is active
Can you install a VPN on these router? Thanks.
No does not have a feature for this, but you can use something like a Smart DNS service if you only want to change the location of your devices. But this option does not hide or encrypt your traffic like a VPN.

Hi, one question, how I can change number of channel?
It's not possible. This is hellish for legacy devices

How to enable 2.4 Ghz wifi on this device? I can't connect my CCTV IP camera. Help
Same question,i want to pass 5g and i cant
@@alexnas81 I solved my problem myself. Just reset the router . Such a small hole on the back of the device. And everything works as it should.
@@danielgwiazdzinski8103how do u turn off 5ghz completely du know?
CAN WE disable in wifi permanently
the 5gh?? and how??
You should see the settings in your router menu: Choose 'Expert Mode' > Wi-Fi (Top Menu) > Wi-Fi Settings. The menu should show toggle switches to switch off either WiFi band. But if you do not see this option then Vodafone blocks this feature if you have Super Wi-Fi.
Can you change network names and password ? Can you split the wifi signals ???
You can change the WiFi Name (SSID) and Password to something you prefer. Also you can split the WiFi bands, but if you have Super WiFi with a WiFi extender then you cannot as Vodafone will lock the settings.
There is no option for splitting the network… is there other way you can recommend?
@@EclipseReviews🤦🤬 really, Vodafone really p**s me off what's their issue with splitting the frequencies and manual control of the channels.
How can I change the channels of the wifi? I can't see this option on the router
If you have Vodafone Super Wi-Fi and is running your Wi-Fi settings will not allow to change the channels.
thanks for your wonderful video and information. please let me know how can I change the Subnet Mask from255.255.255.0 to 255.255.0.0
Please show us how to hide IP address
There is no feature to hide your IP address built-in to the router. You can use something like smart DNS, but this is not a VPN but only help with devices appear in other country
Can you connect Nordvpn to that router
There is no builtin option to add a VPN service to the router, you can still use the VPN software on your device (Windows, MacOS, Android & iOS)
My doorbell camera won't connect, I suspect it's something to do with the 2.4GHz / 5GHz channels thingy majig, I think 🤔
Is there anything I can do? 🙏
The majority of these devices work only on 2.4 Ghz so you must turn off the 5Ghz channel on your router when initially installing them.
Once successfully connected you can turn the 5Ghz channel back on.
@@David-bl1bt Unfortunately I am unable to control the 5Ghz. It's permanently on. I've tried the field of limit thing, countless times, unsuccessfully 😞
How to turn off secure DNS
How about to block adult's contents, webs" from children. How to find this option? Or it doesn't exist?
Under the options there is nothing for parental controls o the Vodafone router, you would think this would be a basic feature for security. Another option would to be update the DNS servers on the router to something like Cloudflare for families: blog.cloudflare.com/introducing-1-1-1-1-for-families/
I pay Vodafone for 1gb but only get 140mb. I'm not very tech savvy, can I replace this thing completely with another one?
You can replace the Vodafone router with another one, but if you have a home phone line then you will need to look at something called double NAT and this gets technical. Also you will need to speak with Vodafone customer service to get you login details. But if you have no home phone then is much easier to swap
How to switch off wps?
Login to Router > Click Wi-Fi Menu Option in Red > Then on the sub Menu click the WPS Menu option > Here is where you can toggle to switch it off.
Rooter? It’s pronounced like “ROW(as in how) TER.
Here in the UK it is called a router (rooter), a router (pronounced row-ter) is a woodworking profiling tool.
Can you put VPN on this router ?
No you cannot install a VPN, but you can use the VPN Software/Apps on your devices.
