Has anyone installed a Sophos XG onto a Fibre to the Node (FTTN) service on Australia's NBN?

Hi Paul,
Thanks for your message , just an overview on my current setup. I have installed Sophos XG on a mini PC that has four N/W ports. Port 2 has WAN and Port 1 and Port 3 are configured with LAN subnets
When i tried to connect Port 2 directly to NBN NTD and tried to enter PPPoE details , its not been accepted.
My question was is there any other hardware that i need to install on the Mini PC like Sophos VDSL module for the Mini PC to recognize
My ISP Provider is TPG and i dont have static IP from them
Appreciate any assistance
Have a good day
Cheers
Raju
Hi Raku,
when configuring your WAN interface, you select PPPoE, inout the details, then scroll down to DSL and enable the VDSL setting. I looked ta the TPG site and could not find which VLAN id is required, might be provided by yhte configuration as you login.

If you're using NBN FTTN you need a VDSL Modem. For Sophos XG devices, the Sophos VDSL Modem will work fine. If your using a mini PC with Sophos XG installed you'll need to find a TPLink, Billion, Netgear, etc that has a VDSL modem and supports bridged mode.
Hi srw,
I'm using NBN FTTN at home. I have TP-Link VR600 v2. It has bridge mode options, but i havent enabled it yet
Currently TP-Link WAN port is connected to NTD ) , and LAN port from TP-Link is connected to Mini PC Port 2 which has IP 192.168.1.150 ( static )
My doubt is , is this the right way to set it up or should i be enabling bridge mode
Appreciate your cooperation
Thanks
