I set this up myself and was pretty successful myself and for anyone needing it this is how i set it up with Sky superfast broadband using DHCP.
1 - Turn on your Vigor modem and connect desktop/laptop to the lan port and then visit 192.168.2.1 and sign in with admin/admin as user & password and In the vigor dashboard you go to internet access >> MPoA / Static or Dynamic IP Menu click enable button, save and it reboots and that's it.
2 - After rebooting you turn the vigor off and set it up in a suitable location near your opnsense box, turn the vigor on and connect the yellow lan port to your opnsense wan port with a network cable.
3 - Sign into the opnsense dashboard and check wan status, this should (it has with mine) just connect you to the internet and provide DHCP 4/6, Mac address and so on automatically with no configuring.
I did nothing but just connect an ethernet cable from the wan port of opnsense to the lan port of vigor and it automatically did the rest on both ends which was painless.
