Nighthawk R7000 compatibility

Hi, Does anyone know if the Nighthawk R7000 will work with the ISP Plusnet in the UK?

  • You can get most routers work. Its just what do you have to do to get them working. 

    1. you might have to put the plusnet device in modem only/passthrough mode. 

    2. you might have to put the netgears IP address into the plusnet's dmz

    3. you might have to put the netgear in access point mode. 

    4. or it might even just be plug and play. 

     

    a lot depends on what gateway you'll have from plusnet.

    • Thanks, will post back if I have any issues. Sounds fairly straightforward, but didn't want to presume.
