Is it a router that's known to work with Sky?

Does it support Sky's DHCP option 61 authentication? A quick Google didn't find anything definitive that said it does. If it doesn't it just won't work and you'll have two options 1. return it 2. change ISPs.

Can you connect your pc to the 130 directly to make sure bridge mode is working? Then look ar router

That will be relatively difficult because of option 61 with Sky. The modem just passes the data - it’s the client that passes on the credentials. And from the link that I posted the TP-Link routers in the UK already have a sky specific set of settings baked in.

i dont have sky so no clue on option 61 but can you not add username and password in windows to test bridge mode like other suppliers then?
