    Hello,

    got SIRO installed and there is a CAT6 cable coming out of the SIRO point on my wall?

    Can I buy a buy a stronger device and replace the Gigabox or do I have to keep Gigabox in place and connect my new router to it?



    BTW Vodafone said my upload should be 10% of my download so it looks likes 500Mbps download and only 50Mbps upload.

    Normal?

    Ya you can. I just swapped out my Gigabox for a Fritzbox and it worked fine. I entered the account settings on the box and it worked no probs

    Thanks.

    Which account settings did you need?

    If I go to my settings all I see is Fibre Connection IPv4 Address.
