The OpenNet people coming over this week to set up my M1 Fiber Optic. Is there anything that I might need to get beforehand other than router, like cable, etc?

[alfseeto]

I signed up with M1 couple of weeks ago, and my installation date is mid Feb. Do I need to call them, or will they call me when it is closer to the date?

Usually they will call you when the dae is nearer to confirm your appointment. But if they do not call you, no harm giving M1 a call to double check your appointment time.

Did you took the HG256? If yes, you can only connect the RG directly to the ONT only. Therefore Option 1 is not possible which is also why you didnt manage to do it.

Yes option 2 is possible. You need to turn off the wifi in the RG and use purely for the voice service only. You may want to refer to the recommend thread under MarineX guide. Can refer to my page 1 thread, I post a redirect link on that.

Hi,
Understood PC can't connect to ONT if RG is used for voice line, but can I connect as follows after ONT>Huawei RG? :
(1) Port 1 on Huawei RG > cable > Engenius router to provide wireless
(2) Port 2 on Huawei RG > cable > PC and other devices via cable

Thanks

Yup. Both option can be done. Port 3, 4 can also be used from the Huawei RG.

Check the encryption settings etc.

I would suggest that you get a new Wireless adaptor as the Wireless B adaptor is not quite optmised for fibre.

i getting 1kps - 5kps speed for like 24hrs time
