Reply To: Fritz!Box 7590 7582 and others beta (labor) firmware 7.19 for DE & INT changed from Asus (with many problems) to all AVM-mesh solution last months. I had 2 problems and some suggestions to them. And what shall I say, they did it and…

The Fritz!Box 7582 supports PPPoE Passthrough which is almost like bridge mode according to the sales pitch.

I have used PPPoE Passthrough on my Fritz!Box 3490 and it worked well, (I am with BT) but unsure if used with SKY as they use a system known as MER which is a dhcp request with option 60,61 for PPPoE.

If you are a SKY customer, just have to ensure your router supports SKY setup etc. and hope the Fritz!box when set-up in PPPoE Passthrough mode will allow (pass on) the DHCP request with option 60, 61 to be handled by the router ? (not tried it myself)

Hopefully @Grisu can advise as I believe he has/had the 7582
