| [Internet] Fibe 175 slow when in bridge mode All,
I have Fibe 175 at home and I'm having a strange issue. I can easily get the promised speed when connected behind the sagemcom but as soon as I want to do PPPoE through the Sagemcom with any other device or computer (tried tons of routers/firewall/macs/PCs) I can not get anything above 50-60Mbps...
I absolutely want to use another router router and don't want to double NAT and yes I have a good gigabit connection to the Sagemcom.
Bell plainly told me they can't do anything since it's working fine with their device.
Anybody have an idea?!
Cheers |

Or if your router behind the Sagemcom has a "bridge" mode (versus PPPoE or DHCP), use that. |

I've the same problem here. I've about 30/30 instead of 175/30. I've called and a technician told me that they have a bug in the Sagemcom modem. The technicien told me that they are waiting a new version of the firmware. |

Yes it does since I can easily get that speed when in DHCP mode or connected directly on the ONT. But then, my TV doesn't work! |

Blainville, QC | Yep, Used VLAN ID 35 and faked the Sagemcom MAC address and you're good to go |
|
| sounds like you have a pretty nice router. fyi the sagemcom's TV session authenticates via DHCP on vlan 36.
I dont know what kind of router you have... but could you go ONT -> your router -> sagemcom -> set top boxes?
so allow the sagemcom to have wan access on vlan36 through your cpe router?
Is that possible?

| The problem is they only allowed one MAC address and it has to be the one from your sagemcom... Also, they do fancy stuff with DNS and routing for the TV. I did some reverse engineering it the past and almost got the TV completely working without the sagecom put I gave up and couldn't figure everything they do...
But you got me thinking... I'll let you know if I figure something
Thanks |

Same problem here dropping from 50Mbps to 35 using PPPOE on my router. |
|
| reply to tbb73
Would you be willing post a guide on getting any router to work with the ONT directly? for those of us without TV? |
|
| reply to tbb73
i just got 50/50 ftth, is the IP always static? I've had the same one for 3 days. |

Change router's WAN setting from PPPoE to DHCP and then place the device in the Sagemcom's DMZ. |

I guess that alot of us would be excited if we could get internet+TV working with our personal routers (even if we need to hack the heck out of our routers to get the thing working) 
If you do get it to work(Internet+TV & apps), please let us know! |

Looks like a couple months later and we're still waiting |

It is possible to be connected directly to ONT and still have TV.
What i did on Tomato:
ONT - Myrouter - Sagemcom - TV
So my router is connected to ONT and the Sagemcom is connected to my router on port 1.
To do this my WAN and my port 1 of my router share VLAN34 for iptv connection, VLAN36 for iptv stream and VLAN35 for apps. |

Could you give a little more details on your setup? |

1 edit | In fact what my setup do is instead of having the my router connected to the sagemcom connected to the ont, my sagemcom is connected to my router connected to the ONT.
ONT(port1) connected to (WAN) MyRouter (port1) connected to (WAN) sagemcom (port1) connected to my PVR.
Instead of doing complicated things in my router for IPTV, the sagemcom is doing everything but after my own router.
I have only one tv, but because the sagemcom is still functionnal you can use the same tv setup.
In my router i run Tomato but any router supporting vlan 34-36 you're okay. So in my router i have:
-Original mac address of my router
- WAN and port1 tagged with VLAN34 VLAN35 VLAN36
- VLAN35 connected to bridge "Wan" with normal PPPoE setup |

Quebec, QC | Doesn't the sagemcom need to get an IP address by DHCP for TV? How does it not get an IP from your router?
Also I guess both your router and the sagemcom are doing PPPoE at the same time? |
