    Cool Ideas Fibre ISP – Feedback Thread 7

    @CoolEscalator just wanted to say thanks again to the Cool team. Every time I’ve moved it’s been smooth and quick. Ordered on the 21st and done today! Line wasn’t running at full speed and support were patient and helpful while I diagnosed what ended up being a bad crimp on a point. Huge thanks...

    So everything works. The only thing I’m worried about is the fibre cable being damaged but it defo seems to work. I’ve put my own router there. Net gets 100/50 even though the owner had 240/240 that cancels on the 31st. Interestingly the router gets internet with a Username and Pass, and with...

    I will do my best, the existing install is what I managed to reconnect last night will moving a few things over, area power is down so cant test. There is the UBNT ONT which I have plugged the very badly wrapped fibre cable back into, it was rolled up like a normal cable and fibre dont link...

    Thank you. Ok so I will place the order about a week and a half before we move in on the 23rd. The landlord is going to get AH and FF out to survey and see whats going on, hopefully they do, but I will get the order in place. They have forwarded the email of cancellation from AH to me so that I...

    I have a rain Unlimited for backup when Fibre is down so I will use that in the interim, rain coverage there is just a bit sketch comperd to current location.

    So the place I am moving to, complex in Rynfield, has frogfoot. Old tenant cancelled and sent me the mail from Afrihost that it releases 31 Aug at midnight blah blah. Mine cancels at current address with CI same time. Questions. 1. Does FF use PPPOE (ala OpenServe) or DHCP (ala Vuma). 2. There...

    Anybody else just lose connection? Fibre is up on the ONT but PPPOE is down on the router. Tried rebooting and still not working. Tried different router too. Went down around 9:45pm.

    Anyone aware of an Openserve outage in Benoni? Net went down about 16:45 or so. Flashing red light on the Huawei ONT.

    Thank you. Still really hoping for Vuma, but its in a Complex in Benoni so looks like its only Frogfoot. I have cancelled my OpenServe with CI and will place the order for the FF as soon as we have a move in date. I am hopeful that you did not just jinx it @CoolEscalator :)

    Change the router IP address and DHCP range

    Not much of an assist. Changing DHCP and LAN IP is beyond your scope? It is a basic end user feature, and your rainOne causes havoc with networks that dont subscribe to 192.168.0.x and boy oh boy is the Bridge function on your router NOT working so well. I had to fiddle with a few extra things...

    Change the router IP address and DHCP range

    @rain_mobile I have sent you a PM, I need to use my router in an environment where I need to be able to assign the DHCP and IP address of the101. It is inherently dumb that such a simple router setting is locked out from users. Or has anybody managed to work around the new firmware to get into...

    I just did a downgrade for affordability and had the same thing, Invoice for R 0.00 but I still got a message from the connect team and they said all is good and its being processed. @CoolEscalator I am using Tailscale to manage a number of devices and added a device earlier today from my home...
