# Read the whole guide before you start.
# Make sure your router is running reasonably up to date RouterOS.
# Make sure you know your account details provided by A&A for the L2TP connection. In particular, you will need the L2TP username and L2TP password. This is a separate username & password to the ones you use to log in to https://control.aa.net.uk. If you're not sure, you can find this on your L2TP service's page on the control pages.
# Check what IP addresses you've been assigned. This guide will assume you have 1x IPv4 assigned (198.51.100.127), and a single IPv6 /64 subnet (2001:8b0:db8:acb1::/64) set up in the Control Pages.
# Make sure you're starting with a freshly factory reset router without any default configuration.

* If you complete the configuration but are unable to route any traffic - eg when trying to ping 8.8.8.8 from a device behind your new router you get an "unreachable" error response, double check that you are using the correct password for your L2TP service. It is not the same password as you use to log in to the control pages at https://control.aa.net.uk
