Hi everyone,

Im currently using a Netgear Nighthawk X8 router.
I've set it up with the PPPOE and both the Vlan 500 and Vlan 600 and all is working fine.
I've been using this setup for almost 2 months with Unifi 100mbps.

Today, i got a call from a TM guys saying that he's coming to change my BTU because i got turboed to 500mbps.
So he came and change the BTU unit to a new Huawei unit.
He configured the BTU and connected it to the router but now the router is not working.
He did everything he can for almost 25 minutes and still no internet.
Then he tries it with his own router which was a D-link unit (cant remember the model) and the internet works.
It does shows the speed of 500mbps down and 100mbps up.
Then, he try again with my router and the internet doesn't work.

I've tried resetting the router and setting it up from scratch.
Did all the PPPOE and Vlans.
Still nothing.

So now im using the Nighthawk as an AP and connected it to the old TM router (DIR-615) just so i can use the internet.
[New Huawei Modem ---> DIR-615 with Wi-Fi off -----> Nighthawk X8 as AP]

Any idea on what the problem is?

Thanks!

Guys, ive managed to make the internet and iptv work again. But i changed the vlan500 priority from 1 to 0 and the vlan600 priority from 5 to 0. Any idea why and will it give any effect?
