Question. I have organised a 10Gib connection (Iway XGSPON) and module + cable. But the device does not recognise an uplink. According to the provider (Iway) I have to tag VLAN 10. Surely customers of Init7 should also do this (as they do not have their own fibre) but rent cable from Swisscom.

Where do I make this adjustment? I have not found anything where I can tag VLAN on the SFP+ port.

Accepted Answer

The router cannot be operated directly on an XGS-PON port.
At iWay you can buy an XGS-PON bridge, behind which you can operate whatever you want, as long as the device can tag on the WAN VLAN.

Answer

This will not work like this. With Swisscom XGS-PON (incl. BBCS) connections, only routers certified by Swisscom can be used.
The ASUS RT-AX89X is definitely not one of them. The only certified router I know of is the Zyxel AX7501 B0.

Answer

I also had 0 problems, as far as I know the option is only available via WLAN. Have you already set the router to 10G SFP+ in the "Advanced settings" in the "Dual WAN" tab?

Answer

I didn't have to configure anything with Init7, but I also don't have "XGSPON" but "ETH". It's best to write to Asus support.
