Good News Configured Airtel Fiber internet access on TP-Link XX530v XPON router

[Bapun]

@Bapun bro do you happen to know how to configure the VoIP here?

The ka.ims.airtel.in I picked up from my Airtel Router's admin page.

Yes bro, I know how to configure Airtel VoIP on XX530v. But there's a limitation currently.

If your VoIP profile is IPv4, then only the XX530v will support it. If it's IPv6, then you need to wait for a firmware update. I heard TP-Link is already working on it.

Here's a Pro tip for you @Sparker0i bro:

I recommend you to delete your quick setup created WAN profile and re-create it again from the advanced settings -> XPON WAN tab. That way you will get IPv6 support along with IPv4 support.

How do I know that? On the Airtel Router admin page I saw IPv6/IPv4 Dual Stack value as IPv4

From your message it sounds like you are getting IPv4 VoIP connectivity. But to be sure before proceeding with the setup, you can show a screenshot.

Kindly share a screnshot of this part from your Airtel router:

You can setup VoIP on XX530v since your VoIP profile is IPv4 and can even run Zoiper to remotely call from your Airtel landline number using the PC/smartphone Zoiper app.

Create another XPON WAN profile on XX530v advanced settings. You can name it Airtel_VoIP or anything as per your choice.

Under Service type, select Internet & VoIP

Set VLAN ID to 660 and Priority to 4

Set Internet connection type to Static IP

Fill the VoIP IPv4 address, subnet mask and gateway. You can copy them from your Airtel router’s settings.

Since Primary DNS is mandatory to be filled on TP-Link, you can fill Google DNS (8.8.8.8) or Cloudflare DNS (1.1.1.1) there.

Under Advanced tab, keep NAT & IGMP Proxy checked.

Then click on Okay to create the Voice WAN profile.

Once that is done, go to Static Routing tab on the TP-Link XX530v. Fill the VoIP IP details by copying them from the Airtel router's Network setting -> Routing -> Routing table.

Once you have done these, we can proceed to telephone number addition.

Is it XPON or GPON WAN? I see only GPON WAN in the menu here

Your device is running on older firmware bro. You need to update the firmware then it will become XPON WAN.

This is the latest stable firmware version:
