LOL. No hate for usg, but its a bit limited for my liking. Its pretty, sure, but with that price i can get smthg better. just my 2 cents.

i myself own an edgerouter, a lot of mikrotik, ubiquiti unifi switch, ap pro. Thinking to get a usg to do experiment with it.

I recently found out that some of you have problem with setting up edgerouter-x with my tutorial, specifically with hypptv. Please be informed that it does work perfectly with edgerouter-x. If any of u need a step by step, do reply here to let me know.

Hey guys! A few months ago i posted a topic regarding edgerouter lite and how i finally set it up to use with my tm unifi with hypptv. I got involved with ubiquiti forum(amazing forum btw), asked around and had many experiments with the settings including cli based settings. Dont be afraid though. I had a discussion a few months ago with ubiquiti engineer and they agree that they should implement vlan based connection. Lo and behold, firmware 1.9 came out with a wizard that set up PPPoE connection with vlan tag! Pretty awesome of them to hear an opinion from a couple of forumer in Malaysia. I say kudos to Ubiquiti. This is important to all users in Malaysia that mainly connect to the internet the 'vlan' way.LOL.

Enough background check, lets get to it. In this tutorial, i will be using edgerouter-lite as reference. Lets hit it!
1) Download the latest firmware from ( https://www.ubnt.com/download/edgemax ). As of the day im writing this, the latest firmware is at 1.9.1

2) Log into your router page at 192.168.1.1, click system, click 'upload a file' on upload system image, wait a few seconds and the router will ask to reboot, then reboot. =)

3) After aprox 3 minutes the router will finish booting, login into the router again then click wizards, then click;
a) basic setup
b) PPPoE
c) fill in your unifi/maxis/time account name and password
d) click to check vlan, fill in vlan according to your isp (eg: unifi= 500 / maxis fiber= 621)
e) click 'configure this section' on (Optional) Secondary LAN port (eth2)
f) uncheck 'Enable the DHCP server'
g) under 'user setup' choose 'create new admin user', fill in your new user and password(dont use default ubnt, change your password! very important)
h) click apply and reboot.

Viola! your router is set up for internet use! enjoy!!!

Part one of the setup is done, this is mainly for people who doesnt care about iptv like hypptv or astro via maxis fiber. U can hop away and start your beautiful day with the edgerouter! Now moving on to part two where we will set up iptv, hypptv and astro via maxis fiber. lets go!

1) On the router dashboard page click on
a) Add interface
b) Add Vlan
c) Fill in Vlan id (eg: unifi= 600 / maxis fiber= 823)
d) Select eth0 on 'interface'
e) Fill in 'Hyyptv' or 'astro' according to your iptv
f) Click save

2) At 'Local 2', click on 'actions', 'config', change 'manually define ip address' to 'no address', click save.

3) Click on 'Config tree',
a) click interfaces, bridge, click add, fill in 'br0'
b) click ethernet, eth0, vif, 600, bridge-group, fill in 'br0' in 'bridge'
c) click eth2, bridge-group, fill in 'br0' in 'bridge'
d) click 'preview' and 'apply'

4) At this point you can plug your iptv cable to eth2 of your router, make sure restart the iptv box after plugging it in.

Thats it guys! its not as complicated as u think. sure if i were to make a tutorial using cli then that would be a slightly different story. LOL.

I hope u guys enjoy the tutorial! Please point out something that i missed or mistakes.

This wraps up this tutorial, please tell me if any of u guys need to set up ipv6 and set up dns forwarding, ipv6 forwarding, upnp or upnp2 with nat-pmp. These can be done on the next one. Cheers!

Hi, I need help. I'm currently using edgerouter X. I cannot get tm hypptv to work. I've tried following your guide. Internet works now.
I have eth0 set for pppoe

eth0 has both vlan 500 and 600
local2 (eth1) set to no address
bridge group br0 added
eth0 vif 600 added bridge group br0
eth1 bridge group br0

hypptv still wont work. am i doing anything wrong?

My plan is to use eth0 for pppoe and eth1 for hypptv
eth234 will be used for other devices (access points etc.)

current firmware version 1.10.3

appreciate your advice. thanks.

Remove eth1 from the switch0

Should I try to reset the whole thing and reconfigure again?
I've tried the basic setup wizard with either using single Lan option
or having two Lans option.

Unnecessary. Just go to config tree interface, then switch0, look for interface eth1 and delete it. That will remove the eth1 from the switch chip.

Cheers

Hello, good day to you!
I just got a UDM and tried to set up Maxis fibre with the UDM.. And I tried these settings and it did not work for me. Do you mind giving me some insights?
I tried VLAn 621 and VLAN 11 (as stated in my maxis router profile) and it did not work... And I tried Qos from 1-4 too..

Thanks in advance!

Yours should work with vlan tag 11. The config looks fine to my eyes though. Not sure why that wouldnt work. Have you tried letting it connect for a little while?

Thanks so much for your reply! May I know if I should leave QoS on? And on what number.. I’ll try again after I get back from my hometown.

Also, happy holidays!
Will update you once I go back and test again

Took the plunge to try out ER-4 before moving to my new house. It actually looks much bigger than what I thought.

Yes it is bigger and wider than most edgerouters. Its is really powerful. Congrats on the purchase. What switch and ap(s) do you pair it with. Curious.
