DG6300 and BT Infinity

I have been using a DG6300 for 4 months no problems.

I now have BT Infinity (VDSL) and so my DG6300 cannot be used to connect as its an ADSL device.

OK - I want to be able to use th eBT Home Hub 5 as the VDSL connection to the internet only.

Do I have to diable wireless and disable DHCP on the home hub 5 and use my D6300 as normal to provide wired/wireless and DHCP server functions.

This is what i would prefer.

I have disbaled DHCP and the wireless from the home hub and connect a cable from the home hub to the INTERNET port on my D6300 but cannot get the configuration work.

Where am i going wrong.

Hello pedrosa 

 

Im not that familiar with the BT home Hub 5 but i have read that it cant be used as a stand alone modem but I was able to find a thread of how to set it up so you can use your own router hopefully this helps.
