OpenReach carry SH2?

[Starwire]

No, Openreach no longer supply CP Routers for any kind of Task whatsoever.

They have been withdrawn from their Stock Holding altogether.

Some carry a spare HH4/5 for testing purposes to prove service if yours hasn’t arrived but they’ll not leave it with you.

Arrived just in time for installation

👍

Hopefully the install will go well and you’ll be up and running in no time.

@The_Bin_Man  which package did you go for.

You will love fibre to the premises, it just works 24/7 😃

[The_Bin_Man]

Fibre 900.

Fingers crossed!

[The_Bin_Man]

Me too!

Well so far so good since installation and a happy customer.

On first power up the SH2 was installed with firmware v0.17.01.12312 (restricted upload to 50Mbps) but after 9mins had been replaced with v0.24.04.11017 and speeds unrestricted.

I've moved the SH2 to a different room (piping about 20m of Cat6) for purposes of using ethernet in some devices direct to hub.  Connection has been constant.

If anyone knows of an ONT power adaptor which has a longer lead I would be interested to hear.  Would like something with a 3.5m run between mains plug and the end.  The recent small square Huawei was installed, as documented by @Starwire  in September.

@The_Bin_Man 

That's awesome mate, fingers crossed it stays that way for you

You can now enjoy Ultra Fast broadband the same as I do. 😄
