What is the purpose of this device?
It is a standalone modem that bridges VDSL2 (FTTC) or ADSL2+ broadband connections to an Ethernet port, allowing you to connect it to a separate router or firewall that lacks built-in DSL capabilities.
Does it work with all UK broadband providers?
Yes, it comes pre-configured with settings for most UK ISPs, including the necessary Openreach VLAN tag, making it compatible with services from providers like BT, Sky, TalkTalk, and others on the Openreach network.
How many devices can I connect directly to it?
It has two Gigabit Ethernet ports. One is typically used to connect to your main router's WAN port. The second port allows you to connect a computer directly to access the modem's configuration interface without interrupting the main internet connection.
Does it support IPTV services like Sky Q?
Yes, it is compatible with IPTV and ISP Video on Demand services, including Sky Q and YouView, without requiring additional configuration.
What is the maximum internet speed it supports?
It supports VDSL2 35b profiles with sync rates of up to 300Mb/s on compatible fibre-to-the-cabinet (FTTC) lines.
Does it include a router or Wi-Fi?
No, this is a modem only. It does not perform routing, network address translation (NAT), or provide Wi-Fi. You must connect it to a separate router to create a local network and enable wireless connectivity.
What is included in the box?
The package includes the Vigor V167-K modem unit, a power adapter, an Ethernet cable, and wall-mount fittings for installation.
