Once we've confirmed that your service is live, go ahead and plug in your VDSL-capable modem—you should be up and running within a few minutes. If not, you'll need to configure the modem with the settings below.

If you have a modem from MyRepublic or a Fritzbox from 2degrees or Slingshot, you'll need to manually configure it regardless—it won't connect automatically.

If you have a Vodafone Ultra Hub or a TG789vac from MyRepublic, it will not work with our VDSL service.

 

 

Manual Settings for VDSL

Make sure the modem is configured with these settings:

  • Username: putanything@slingshot.co.nz
  • Password: putanything
  • Connection Type: VDSL or VDSL 2
  • Interface: PTM 0
  • PPP Protocol: PPPoE
  • PPP Auth Type: PAP
  • PCP: 0
  • 802.1Q: Enabled
  • VLAN ID: 10
  • MTU: 1492 or 1500
  • NAT: Enabled

It doesn't matter what the password or username before the email address is, as long as it isn't empty.
