Netgear rax80 option 61

Hello

I have sky which requires option 61. I have set this up before with asus routers but with this Netgear I just can't find the option 61 to use my username and password.

It's updated to the latest firmware could anyone help please 😔
  • Sorry yes latest firmware and it was in advanced-setup internet- choose internet doesn't require login use dhcp then at the bottom of the same page there was option 61 used the anything@skydsl|anything as user string and it worked after rebooting sky's ont for twenty minutes

  • I don't think it it supported yet. Your best bet is to contact NETGEAR and do a request.

        Wondering if you downgraded the FW to v1.0.3.88 to see if it's there would help you. Possible it's broke in current versions of FW.

    For future reference:

     

    Search - NETGEAR Communities – option 61 

     

    It's a regular.

      Does this router actually output wifi6 or does it use the 5g channel for wifi6. As nothing shows as WiFi 6. Got my ps5 that doesn't show. I have ax enabled

        WiFi6 = AX mode on 5Ghz

        WiFi6E = AX mode on 6Ghz

         

        Does the PS support AX modes on 5Ghz? Something to ask Sony about.
