Connecting to the internet with an isp.
To connect to an ISP, you’ll need a wide area network connection, a modem and an active account. Let take a look at how you’ll be connecting to the internet:
Connecting to the fiber boundary box
Once a fiber network operator has installed all the necessary infrastructure, your premises will be connected with a fiber optic cable to your nearest boundary box.
Installing your on-premises ONT
Next, an Optical Termination Box will be installed in the most suitable location in your premises allowing your equipment to interface with the fiber network.
Connecting your router
In order to create a local area network, you’ll need a router to interface with your ONT box to distribute the connection across your LAN.
Configure your ISP account
Based on the connectivity package that you’ve selected from tour ISP, you’ll be provided with credentials to authenticate your connection with your ISP granting you access to the internet.
Internet for home users
If you are a home internet user, you’ll be connected with a fiber to the home (FTTH) service that delivers an affordable and stable internet connection suitable for most home applications.
Internet for business clients
Businesses often require a dedicated internet connection with low contention ratios and high priority service level agreements – therefore your business will be connected with a FTTB, or fiber to the business connection.
