    Frogfoot subscription inquiry

    Sorry, I'm new to this whole fibre thing so this might be a dumb question.

From reading forums on here I've gathered that FF is...

    Can Fibre Providers reuse the same CTE / ONT?

    In our area I have three fibre providers available to me (yes, they dug up the verge, my driveway and every water pipe in the street three times).
