Hi there.
We are having the same issues. We are with Vodafone and have a fibre connection. Bought the XR300 today as Vodafone's stock modem is so slow and useless. We are connecting the router directly to the fibre box - ethernet cable from the GEN1 port on fibre box directly into the yellow WAN port on the router. All the LED lights are white, except the internet access one which is orange. Vodafone states our fibre connection is working perfectly.
We simply cant seem to set it up,and neither of us are tech wizards.
Did you manage to sort yours out?
