I'm looking to give Quic a go by setting it up at my parent's bach so I can work from there over the summer.

 

The ONT has been installed, but it has never been connected to an ISP. What is the likely timeframe for a brand new connection? I have a spare Fritzbox from my 2degrees connection that I can use.

 

Cheers!

As long as it's fully connected to the Chorus network, usually within the same day.

^ This.. some people have been online within an hour or two of putting the provisioning request in.

To give you an idea how quick an Intact ONT can be activated, I just provisioned this morning at 10:37 and the ONT will be live at noon.
