🌐 How to Set Up a UniFi OS Router for Internet Access (UDM / UDM Pro / Gateway)​


🧰 What You’ll Need​


  • UniFi OS-compatible router
  • Internet connection via modem or fiber ONT
  • Ethernet cables
  • UniFi mobile app or a computer with a web browser
  • UniFi account (create at https://ui.com if needed) - This is not strictly necessary



⚙️ Step 1: Connect the Hardware​


  1. Plug in your modem/ONT to its wall plug and power it on.
  2. Connect the modem to the Unifi device's WAN port using an Ethernet cable.


🌍 Step 2: Configure Internet Settings​


  • Auto-detection: Olilo uses DHCP - Make sure IPv4 is set to DHCPv4 (this is on city fibre only, open reach base connections still use PPPOE)
  • Static IP Setup (if applicable):
Your final setup should look similar to the following:

🌍 Step 5: Configuring IPv6​

1. On the WAN tab, Scroll down past IPv4 configuration
2. Set IPv6 configuration to DHCPv6
3 Set Prefix delegation size to 48

4. Head to the 'Networks' tab
5. Select your primary network
6. Select IPv6

✅ Step 4: Finalise and Test​


  1. Save settings and allow the device to apply them (may reboot).
  2. Connect a device to your new Wi-Fi network or via LAN.
  3. Test the internet by opening a website or running a speed test.
Here is what your ONT should look like

To confirm that, as discussed, it works as expected on Openreach connections without VLAN 911.

Hello

Olilo since launch now uses DHCP, so no PPPoE information is needed

I should really remove that sectoon

Apologies for the confusion

Edit: if you have an open reach connection, then PPPOE is still used
