Buona sera a tutti, ho appena installato FTTH con sky wifi e avevo già una rete con degli ORBI Wifi 6. Volevo utilizzarli direttamente senza router collegando direttamente l'ONT ma non sono riuscit...

Ciao to all!
I've finally found the problem. My ISP use IPv6 and I had to manually enable it.
The provider is Sky, and the config is just DHCP + IPv6 + enable VLAN/Bridge with ID 101
Have a good day

they told me that i have to find IPoE (and not PPPoE), but i cannot find it.
Is it supported?
thank you

Does the ISP require you to enter a user name and password when connecting?
If not, I would try the "No" option on "Does my internet connection require a login."
This article on the internet points out (in the bottom table) that IPoE authenticates using DHCP, which is what the "No" option does.

Contact the ISP for help on this.
If this is something that is not seen on the Orbi system, then you may need to use there hardware.

What happens if you connect a desktop or laptop computer directly to the ONT? Does it connect?
I agree that the ISP may be the best resource. I have found that most ISP's have many technical support agents and that the agents vary in their ability to understand questions and provide useful information. Perhaps calling again and being careful not to mention IPoE, explain what you are trying to do and how it fails. The ISP must have countless customers who want to use their own router.
Is it correct to assume that the ONT was originally connect to a router provided by the ISP and you want to remove that router?
