IPTV Set Up With 8800AXL

Post by ricke17 »

Hello,

So plusnet are about to make their IPTV available for residential premises.

I am going to go for this - in preparation for this, how do I go about setting up the 8800AXL router?

Cheers in advance,

Rick.

No problem mate, this guide should work for the following reasons

1. I wrote this guide
2. Already sent this to another customer and he confirmed it worked fine

Awesome - it seems straightforward anyhow - but you know how untechnologicaly minded I am - when it does go live and I order it and set it up ok, I will let you know!

So I have ordered IPTV today - is it advisable to wait until I receive the YouView box and then configure the Billion or can it be done now in anticipation?

Just followed your guide in anticipation of receiving my new youview box - all set up ok and IPTV channels are showing up on my current box although the service/activation has not been completed (AFAIK) from pn.

Thanks!
