Jaxson: Not having been through a fibre install myself, what do you get out of the ONT? - an Ethernet port?

The ONT has four Ethernet ports and two phone ports but typically only one or two of those ports are used. Wi-Fi is completely separate. At my place the ONT is in the garage and the Wi-Fi AP is in a central cupboard.

Vertical video really bugs me and you see examples on the news where they alter the video to make it look like the sides have been blurred out. Maybe better than black bars but still awful. 

DarthKermit: Hey, it couda been a lot worse: It's lucky that he didn't thread that cable through the open door, thereby trapping it in the open position.

Thanks.

Are companies such as Spark and Vodafone providing wireless AP's as part of their migration/install offerings?
Just the use of wifi devices has exploded and I can't see any install not realistically requiring this as well.

Amosnz: A Chorus tech friend of mine in Taranaki said an email was circulated to all local fibre techs a few weeks ago saying they were 'exceeding expectations' and they should 'lower their standards'.

michaelmurfy: Ugh the comments like "free WiFi for a year" and "the guy must have been really sparked up".

Don't people understand still spark is just the service provider? How many times does it have to be said?

No, they don't. People are ignorant, and often also stupid. Sounds like this guy got his problem sorted in the end, shame a lot of morons who've seen it will blame Spark rather than the installer specifically. 

Not ignorant, not stupid. Example a Doctor is a Spark customer, contacts Spark to have UFB installed. Spark starts the process. People turn up and finally the jobs done but botched. Who should he call?.... Spark. In these
cases the main contractor and the only person the Doctor can correspond to remedy is Spark so to him it Spark that is at fault not some nameless sub-contractor.

sbiddle: I don't understand why this person wanted their ONT in the hallway. Yes drilling through the door is inexcusable, but the new hybrid cable can only be surface mounted (no capping will be used) so under the circumstances this probably represents the best job possible for the location.
