Good Evening All,
I'm with Vodacom on the Metrofibre network. I contacted Vodacom over two weeks ago about an intermittent issue where the broadband light on my ONT would flash red for a few minutes per day, leaving me without internet. They said the turnaround time is 24-72 hours, yet two...
If anyone is able to assist or advise it would be greatly appreciated.
I am with Homeconnect and my fibre line is managed by Vumatel. I've had an issue for over 6 months where each time I restart (power off and on) the ONT box, my internet connection takes several hours to restore. I've raised...
Hello,
I am actually starting this thread on behalf of a friend.
He has a package with Afrihost. He uses the following router:
Huawei WS7100
The ONT is making the authentication connection and the router is just acting like a bridge set up.
The problem is that whenever my friend connects to...
To help me work during load shedding I got one of these micro-UPS devices which has a split DC connector to power both the router and the ONT (fibre box). Now the ONT at my old place was powered by a @Frogfoot Fibre box that looks as follows and has a compatible DC power connector.
The problem...
Hey guys,
I've been having the most frustrating couple of weeks since getting Openserve fibre through Webafrica two months ago.
It started two weeks back when the area experienced an outage after some cables were stolen, I believe some idiots thought fibre cables were worth something...
Hi Guys/Gals
This is my first post on mybroadband so please forgive any errors. I currently have a fibre connection with Afrihost running of Openserve. During my install I received one ONT box and the Huawei WS5200 router which included a UPS for loadshedding backups. This works fine. My...
Fibre trenching currently happening in my area with three FNO's. I won't name drop but one FNO is using the regular electrical single way round junction box as the fibre box mounted on the outside wall/ fence.
As far as I know, the weatherproof lockable type is the standard. I want to see what...
I will hopefully be able to order fiber in September, depending on when FF goes live in Darling.
I have a Ubiquiti network, and like to extent this to the ONT.
Is this supported by FF/CI?
If it is, which specific model should I get (UF-Nano/Loco)?
I assume is does not really matter?
I have bit the bullet and pre ordered openserve fibre and wanted to know what ont they install and what is the power rating. I have a backup battery for my adsl router and want to repurpose it for the fibre install. Also i am buying my own router so i need to decide which one is going to be more...
Hello guys
I just moved into an appartment and there was already a fiber line with an ONT. I phoned supersonic for a fiber installation and told them about the ONT so they said they only needed the B number to take over the line. A B number is assuming that the line was installed by Openserve...
I've been using my Mikrotik RB433UAH for years as a gateway for my 10Mb ADSL connection and by now I have it configured just the way I need it with NAT and Firewall Rules.
The Mikrotik would initiate the PPPOE connection and my up/down speeds we're always 100% (10Mb down and 1Mb up)
I have...
Hello Everyone
I just want to know if anyone here experienced or know about the ONT / Router called Calix GigaCenter 844G-2 that MetroFiber supplies to their customers ?
Hello Guys .
I am looking for the model numbers of which ONT/CPE TTConnect Uses. I have heard that what they use vary.
The Reason I am looking for this info is that i need to make space for it in a wall mounted box.
I have tried phoning them but i just keep getting transfered between...
I have searched the forum but can’t find anyone that has managed to setup more than one PPPoE connection using Openserve Fibre.
From what I have seen the Openserve ONT only has one active Ethernet port, and I would like to hook it up to my Mikrotik router and then setup two PPoE connections...
