udm-telus | get TELUS Optik TV working with the UDM and Ubiquiti APs

Your UDM must be updated to at least version 1.11.0 to use igmpproxy. SSH into your UDM. Replace 192.168.1.1 with your UDM's IP. Download igmpproxy and configuration file. The default igmpproxy.conf uses eth9 (WAN2 SFP+ port) for the upstream network, and br33 (VLAN 33) for the downstream network. If you are using the Ethernet WAN port, or another VLAN for your TV, then modify igmpproxy.conf accordingly. Run igmpproxy in the foreground to test if everything is working. On your wired TELUS PVR and digital boxes (not the wireless ones), tune to a channel and check if the TV is working without interruption for longer than 15 seconds. If igmpproxy is not working, your TV will stop working after 15 seconds.
Your UDM must be updated to at least version 1.11.0 to use igmpproxy.
If you are using a version before 1.11.0, you can still use igmpproxy, but you will need to compile a custom kernel and enable the CONFIG_IP_MROUTE option (not covered here). It is recommended to update your UDM to 1.11.0 or later instead of compiling your own kernel.
SSH into your UDM. Replace 192.168.1.1 with your UDM's IP. ssh root@192.168.1.1
Download igmpproxy and configuration file. mkdir /mnt/data/igmpproxy cd /mnt/data/igmpproxy curl -Lo igmpproxy https://raw.githubusercontent.com/peacey/udm-telus/main/igmpproxy curl -Lo igmpproxy.conf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/peacey/udm-telus/main/igmpproxy.conf chmod +x igmpproxy Note the igmpproxy binary included in this repository was extracted directly from the debian arm64 package. If you do not trust the binary on this github, you can download it and extract it manually from the official debian package instead.
The default igmpproxy.conf uses eth9 (WAN2 SFP+ port) for the upstream network, and br33 (VLAN 33) for the downstream network. If you are using the Ethernet WAN port, or another VLAN for your TV, then modify igmpproxy.conf accordingly. TIP: To modify the config, run vim igmpproxy.conf. Press i to start editing in vim, navigate with your arrow keys and make your changes, press ESC to exit insert mode, type :wq to save and exit. If you are using the Ethernet WAN port on the UDM Pro, change the two instances of eth9 to eth8. If you are using the Ethernet WAN port on the UDM Base, change the two instances of eth9 to eth4. If you are using a different VLAN for TV traffic than VLAN 33, change the one instance of br33 to brX, where X is your VLAN number (br0 = default LAN).
Run igmpproxy in the foreground to test if everything is working. ./igmpproxy -nd ./igmpproxy.conf
On your wired TELUS PVR and digital boxes (not the wireless ones), tune to a channel and check if the TV is working without interruption for longer than 15 seconds. If igmpproxy is not working, your TV will stop working after 15 seconds. If your box is stuck at the initialization screen, unplug it and replug it back in and wait a few minutes for it to start. If you cannot even get to watching TV or are getting client initialization errors, make sure your Internet is working and you have previously registered the boxes with TELUS as instructed above.
If the TV is working properly, press Ctrl+C in the SSH window to stop igmpproxy, then run it in the background via: ./igmpproxy ./igmpproxy.conf
igmpproxy will not start on boot by default. If you want to start igmpproxy at boot, read the next section.
If you have any wireless digital boxes, read on to the last section to learn how to set them up with your Ubiquiti WiFi network.
