    UK - BT Digital Voice without Smart Hub?

    Hi, We've been on FTTP for awhile now and recently BT turned off our old copper network. As a result we're now required to plug our phone into the BT Smart HUB in order to utilise our phone via Digital Voice. However, this isn't something I want to do as I utilise my own router running pfsense...

    ZenWiFi AX Mesh WiFi - Red LED ("Disconnected from internet")

    ZenWiFi AX Mesh WiFi - Red LED ("Disconnected from internet")

    Would you be able to draw a diagram of how you would alter my setup. Sorry bit of a visual person and it would be super helpful to me. Also I can confirm my ZenWiFi unit is in AP mode:

    ASUS ZenWiFi AX (XT8) Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.21617 (2022/11/21)

    I'm starting to think my issue was simply a coincidence now. As usual services appears to have been restored.

    ASUS ZenWiFi AX (XT8) Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.21617 (2022/11/21)

    Potentially not related to this thread, unless ofcourse you are correct @tgl . But here is why my setup is the way it is. See this thread from February where I tried to get my network working and since finding this arrangement I've not had a problem...

    ASUS ZenWiFi AX (XT8) Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.21617 (2022/11/21)

    Potentially a coincidence, but since this upgrade I've noticed my WiFi network has been dropping out regularly across multiple different devices. Anyone has similar issues? Annoyingly I've also introduced a new devices to the network which could be the cause but I can't think why it would be...

    ZenWiFi AX Mesh WiFi - Red LED ("Disconnected from internet")

    Okay, the above was causing issues with speed, but I think it gave me the answer I needed. Which is the Asus ZenWiFi AX router in Access Point (AP) mode needs BOTH the WAN plugged into the modem AND the LAN plugged into the switch. My final solution is as follows and looks to be working well...

    ZenWiFi AX Mesh WiFi - Red LED ("Disconnected from internet")

    Okay a potential fix for my issue appears to be the following setup as the red LED disappear on plugging in an ethernet from Asus Router WAN to Modem LAN:

    ZenWiFi AX Mesh WiFi - Red LED ("Disconnected from internet")

    I've now changed my setup but the results are the same. As you can see the Node is now effectively directly connected to the Router via the patch panel. The router is then connected to my switch. However, what seems to cause the red LED is not the switch but the port I use on the router. It...

    ZenWiFi AX Mesh WiFi - Red LED ("Disconnected from internet")

    Another update, I've now plugged with Wifi mesh router into my modem. So my setup now looks like this: This setup gives a white LED when I'm plugged in via the Wifi mesh router WAN port. However, if I plug into the LAN port (as this guide says I should...

    ZenWiFi AX Mesh WiFi - Red LED ("Disconnected from internet")

    Okay, small update. I've removed the node and reset the WifI mesh router. The router LED is now "white", I.E. functioning as it should be. The setup now looks like this: As you can see, the switch is still in the same place. So if it were an issue, I'd expect to see the same problem. So I can...

    ZenWiFi AX Mesh WiFi - Red LED ("Disconnected from internet")

    I've tried plugging directly into the switch on another port. Results in the same issue. I've had no issues with the switch itself and any other form of networking which goes through it, so I can't see how the switch would be at fault. But perhaps it is indirectly through the fact the Asus...

    ZenWiFi AX Mesh WiFi - Red LED ("Disconnected from internet")

    Hi, I'm having some trouble with my Asus ZenWiFi AX Mesh WiFi setup. The Asus ZenWiFi AX marked as "Access Point(AP) mode" is displaying a red LED. From looking at here: https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/1044577/ It would seem that equals "Disconnected from internet". This is confusing as the...
