I have searched forever, can’t find the Australian setting for setting up the D8500 with myrepublic vdsl fttn. Please help.

Sorry Darren, forgot to mention I’ve already used the D8500 for over a year on the nbn with TPG. I’ve switched to myrepublic but the setup wizard doesn’t have myrepublic as an option.

   Forget the "wizard", and configure it manually?  I know nothing, but
a quick Web search found what looks to me like a pretty complete set of
DSL parameters at:

I don’t know if I forgot to mention I’m in Australia. I’ve tried their 3rd party setting for New Zealand as well as for Singapore, which are the settings currently available online. I’m also on a gamer pro plan with a static IP. Closest I’ve come to getting it to work was cloning the MAC address of the myrepublic supplied modem to the d8500. All the lights showed it was working but still wouldn’t show connected on the login page.

It sounds like an issue with the login and modem settings rather than the device. Have you asked the ISP?

Is there a self-support group for myrepublic users?

Yes they did, the wifi performance is not so great though. Connects at over 100mbits a second on a 100mbit plan so the modem performance is outstanding. They gave me a technicolor unit.

Are trying to use both at the same time? If so this could explain a lot
