Hi, recently the ONT for the fibre for my house died. The Chorus technician visited and replaced it with a new ONT which has a wifi antenna attached. Ever since then I have had a new open wifi AP showing which seems to be this ONT.

Should I be concerned?

Reboot the ONT and it should be gone (was with mine).

Yeah, that’s just to allow the technicians to configure the ONT to connect to our network.
It is supposed to disable automatically, please PM me a photo of the label on the side of the ONT and I’ll investigate.
