Fibre optic help

Since my new line for fibre optic was installed, I've had no connection wahtsoever. I phone BT and they say they will arrange for a pole engineer to visit, because this is where the problem is. After umpteen calls and promises, no one arrives, open reach keep cancelling and say I've cancelled it...They've extended the time I can cancel my contract without any cost, so it doesn't look likely that my problem will be sorted and the only other company I can go to, is Virgin.

Re: Fibre optic help

What lights and colour  are showing on the ONT?

What colour is light on hub?  Is ethernet cable from ONT connected to ethernet 4 on hub?

If you go to hub manager then advanced setting then technical log information if FTTP set to on?

Three green lights and the hub is orange since they installed the fibre optic two weeks ago.

The other problem is, open reach keep wanting to send an internal engineer out. I've already had two and explained that I was told the problem was at the pole and not internal.

Re: Fibre optic help

That looks like an authentication issue where the account details do not match the serial number of the ONT.

There seems to be quite a few of these recently.

Re: Fibre optic help

When I phone up no one seems to know. All they want me to do is reset the router or tell em which lights are on. I go through the same thing every time, it's like deja vu every phone call. They say it's authenticated, but I don't believe them.

Re: Fibre optic help

Although you have probably already checked , is  the ONT and SH2 are connected with the Ethernet cable in the last LAN  port on the router , and in the router settings ‘Full Fibre Mode’ is selected to turn the LAN port into a WAN port, and a second Ethernet cable tried , to rule out the cable as faulty ?

To a certain extent, if the PON light on the ONT is steady green , then there is no physical problem , at the pole or anywhere else, the ONT is receiving an optical signal from an OLT (headend) but for whatever reason your ONT isn’t accepted as a valid ‘member’ on that particular optical ‘network’ , this is usually something like the wrong ONT serial number has been entered, so there is a mismatch between the serial number the OLT is expecting and the actual serial number of your ONT , but there can be other issues as well, there used to be issues when the wrong vendor ONT was used ( so for example the OLT being a Huawei and the ONT being Nokia ) but AFAIK , this isn’t an issue any longer .

Re: Fibre optic help

Three green lights are on and cable connected as should be. No dial tone for phone or internet. Now bt bhave already charged me for this month and last month at £74..and I still haven't anything working but the mini hub they sent, which useless half the time.

When I chose this fibre optic, it was £54 including line. And they're charging me for an engineer. Is there a different free number I can dial to get this mess sorted or cancel the contract which I haven't completed by having nothing.
