Hi I'm totally new to this type of forum. Hope someone can help me.
Have a ZTE MF275 smart hub and service is very good compared to my previous ISPs. However I am thinking of installing an external router (something like a Linksys 3200) and installing a vpn to handle all my traffic (am getting somewhat paranoid about extra security).
Have researched quite a bit and understand that there maybe be some issues unless modifications are made to the smart hub settings.
Found a forum from Rogers but wondered if any Telus customer has tried this and has a solution
Thanks

I don't know if there's a way to put the MF271 into Bridge mode or if I have to use port forwarding or something along those lines. Hopefully someone can give me some pointers any help would be greatly apprecieated

Seeing as you have mentioned you are located in the UK and are using Vodafone, you will need to check with Vodafone. Vodafone may have their own specific configuration for that device or service. Telus has not offered that device, which is 5 years old now.
