Original question:
Hi apologies for my ignorance / understanding of a fibre internet connection.
Chorus came and suggested all kinds of places to put both the fibre box (that's the ONT correct?) and the Spark supplied router (HG659B).
- needs power.
- they must be close to each other as possible
- not connected via Cat6 cable but some special fibre cable
- all those places were at the corners of the house, in the house, right where everyone will see.
So I suggested a hidden place somewhere in a more central location, and we agreed on that. PHEW.
Question
Can I put the router in a different location and drill a hole through a wall/floor and run that special fibre cable to connect with the ONT. Say estimating 3m distance of cabling. So that the router is more accessible (wifi, LAN).
