Any Orange livebox users out there

A friend is soon to have an Orange livebox sent out soon and her line with
be made upto 8Meg. She currently has a speedtouch 330 via usb and I have
fitted an ethernet port ready for the day. I don't want to load anymore
software if possible so is it just a case of plugging in the ethernet as I
have done with homehubs/voyagers before.
Any tips/sites please

Just plug in, login (either 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 )as with other
routers, and put in the orange account username (which is
account.orange.co.uk@fs) and password and you will be sorted.

Yep, that's about it. Plug it in, log in via the network and then
configure it.

Best tip would be to use something else. The router\modem itself isn't
too bad, the VoIP side is awful.

I hope she doesn't come to you when her speeds are awful or she's not
even able to connect. Do you know if she's on an LLU'd exchange
