Unfortunately, I think Openserve will only do something when the line actually breaks

Same happened to us... Fell off less than a week after our fibre was installed.
Then it was hanging like that for about 4 months till some vervet monkeys finally knocked it off for good (causing our lines to go down) and only then Openserve came out of fix it.

That is what p*ss me off, one installer does a perfect job and the next one gives a **** and everyone suffers.

Openserve contacted me, but it took a while to explain that the problem is on the pole, not the fibre installation in the house. I'll be laughing if it is the same bugger that screwed up the pole installation in the first place.

Openserve was here and fixed the pole installation, they said they will follow up on the second install behind me that caused the trouble.

Guess I was lucky, got the sms for the fault nr at 08:30 this morning and the techs rocked up at around 14:00. They were very helpfull also to remove the old copper line going to the house.

@AfriNatic do the dlinks have a special plug? My uncle wants an ups for his afrihost dir-825 revr1, will a standard 12v DC ups plug not fit?
I have no idea, but there's a thread for the subject you might want to link your query to, or paste it in there ; maybe @AfriNatic will have some ideas & be able to help you tomorrow.
HUAWEI WiFi AX3
Hi, Recently I upgraded from VDSL to Fibre and was sent the HUAWEI WiFi AX3 router. I was previously using an old Telkom Pace router for my VDSL (Netgear router stopped working), and WIFI inside my house was working perfectly. Now with the new router, using similar settings, and even fine...

Morning,
The D-link has it's own type of plug. The Gizzu has 1 x d-link plug and 3 x DC plugs.

Yes In the HiLink app it says the channels currently in use are best
It’s definitely just the WiFi as Ethernet devices run fine but everyone complains that the WiFi just drops
I would still try to manually change the channels. There might be other factors affecting the wifi that the app doesn't take into account.

Didn’t do much really
Same thing just randomly happens whether I’m the only one connected or if there’s many devices , even right up close to the router
5Ghz also happens as well just much less frequent
Have these random ping spikes even to the router
Old B316 with similar settings never did this
Via Ethernet no issues , just can’t pinpoint the issue with the WiFi on the AX3
Have you tried checking how many other SSID's you pick up and what channels they are on?
