Hi,

I manage to key in my PPPoE login details in my Huawei HG8145X6, and I'm trying to set up with my old Huawei black Modem (given for abt 10years ago).
Originally was planning to set HG8145X6 as a wireless router

Huawei HG8145X6 its uplink mode is AP mode (not sure this is right mode?), but the problem is, it only connects if my LAN port1 of HG8145X6 connects to my LAN port1 of the old Huawei black modem.
if I switch to other ports, I'm getting red LED LOS on my HG8145X6.
Although it connects to the Internet, but my speed limit to 100Mbps on Ethernet connection to HG8145X6, vs previously was about 300Mbps+ prior my router is gone.

I might have the wrong setup
Any advice how do I fix/check?


Thanks

yeah, I wasn't aware there is an optical port when I got the device on March'23.
During that time my modem & tplink C1200 wireless router still working fine.

some day if my huawei HG8240 is dead, then I'll need to get the tech support then.
I wonder usually how much it cost for them per visit?


Yeap, it is Huawei HG8240, and it is still up and running
Wonder it could still last for another 5 years


Just managed to figure out the slow speed issue, and just fixed it. [User problem, lolz]
Now I manage run on 300+Mbps on 5Ghz Wifi, and 500+Mbps on cable.

Thanks everyone
