Hello everyone,
I have the current setup.
Archer VR200v (dumb modem) → Asus TUF AX-6000 (router, pppoe public IP).
About a year ago, I manage to get DSL working in this manner, and after that I manage to get vectoring to work properly. With help from some of you in this post here. I don’t remember the full details, however, after I managed to make it work I locked myself out of the modem, unable to connect to the management console or ssh or any backups.
I performed a factory reset on the modem and then upgrade it to Openwrt 24.10.4, I configured the modem in a similar way and left a management interface open this time. I get DSL connection but I am unable to get vectoring to work, it looks like it falls back to ADSL (~23 MBPS). I played with the DSL settings multiple times, and tried different firmwares. I tried the same firmware shown in the previous post, still won’t move past ~23 MBPS. I called Telekom today, and they measured the connection from the wall in front of me using a handheld modem, it shows 100 MBPS.
I downgraded to the previous version OpenWRT 23.05.5, still not working.
The TUF AX-6000 configuration was not touched.

Two days ago, before I decided to factory reset, it was working fine.
A note, now I use 2 cable between the devices.
- From modem lan2 → router lan4 (management)
- From modem lan1 (dsl bridge)→ router wan (pppoe, public ip)
Looking forward to your suggestions and assistance with vectoring issues.
Thank you in advance,
