Hi Guys,
wondering if I can get some pointers please.
I have a BTHH5 with the latest snapshot of lede 17.01.4 installed
I have tried different configurations, however I am unable get the DSL link to change the status "UP".
is there a network configuration that I am missing ? I have looked at a few forums & tried all the settings suggested without any luck.
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Thanks
Did you look into the instructions posted in the https://openwrt.ebilan.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=266&sid=8b74291085644fbc31e050e168ce8bde thread?
Thanks Moellero.
I have yes, tried different things mentioned on it.
I can connect the HH5, if I piggy back it to the SR102 - so telephone line to SR102 - Ethernet out - Ethernet in to the red WAN on HH5. and it works perfectly.
I am trying to get the hub working with the telephone line directly connected to the HH5, this is where I cannot get the DSL line to get me a status "UP".
Have you read the Bill's manual yet? Look at pages 34-35 and then follow the relevant section depending on whether you have ADSL or VDSL contract.
Thanks Savostyanov,
That is the guide I have followed, without any luck
Well, could you post the result of:
cat /etc/config.network
(redact any unique usernames and passwords) as well as the output of:
/etc/init.d/dsl_control status
If I understand correctly you must be on an old ADSL-line...
Regardless of the protocol, I would have thought the HH5a should show DSL Status as being 'UP' if the basic line parameters (Annex, Tone, VLAN, VPI/VCI, mux etc) are correctly configured for ADSL or VDSL.
Thanks for the input guys.
Sorry, i should have mentioned - i am on Sky Fibre, that would be VDSL ?
If only i could get the DSL status UP, which isnt happening for me.

If you are using LEDE 17.01.4, you should be using vlan 'ptm0.101', not 'dsl0.101', which is only applicable to snapshots from Oct 2017 onwards. (see section 7.17 of the guide)
Client ID and vendor class also appears to be missing. See section 7.5 of the install guide for Sky fibre specific info, which also refers to this link

Thanks Bill,
I am using the latest snapshot, thats why used dsl0.
I will try again using the Client ID & Vendor Id and see if does work.
Also the following two entries look interesting:
and
These IIRC are also not applicable to the 17.01.4 stable release, at least I do not see these in my otherwise pretty stock configuration for 17.01.4.
Perhaps, you could try to connect with stable LEDE 17.01.4 first before trying to do the same on snapshots? Sky config is not a simple one, so it may be worth taking baby steps.
Thanks Savostyanov.
I was on stable 17.01.4 since its release, and never been able to get the DSL up then. Thats why upgraded to the snapshots hoping it would trigger something that might be missing.
I tried downgrading, however the snapshot would not allow me to.
even tried the sysupgrade -f , but no joy with that too.
