I have no problem with you, just your attempts to derail the thread at every opportunity. There's a nets & comms section for networking questions.
If you really wanted to lean what happens when you use the wrong vlan tag you would just change the tag on a PC on your local network.
haha - i'm laughing here now, "attempts to de-rail the thread!" .. yeah, I woke up this morning and I though "what shall I do today?? - I know , I will derail the FTTH thread!" Jeez!

Have you seen the new ones ? Also, Fritz!Box can also be got in black, but it's special order.
https://en.avm.de/products/fritzbox/fritzbox-7590/
7530 will look the same.

Seen it yeah. I mean it looks better than the 1970's spaceships of old but it still has a wiff of the jeffersons about it in a time when routers looks like this:
Even though the black one looks alright I still don't favour the design. Why should a router be big rectangle with lights? Why cant it be something that you would be proud to display. Something that provides useful information at a glance. Just my opinion though. I know they will never go for a design like these.0 -

the fritz box in black much better looking than the normal fritz box
That black Fritz seems fine to me. Although I don't really regard routers as furniture or decoration.0 -
I have a few of those and an 8 port UFiber OLT on my desk here
The idea with the display on that ONT is a really good idea. I also quite liked having the display in the Mikrotik routers.
It's actually something, that brings down support issues.

Chances of some sneak peaks of behind the scenes testing?????
They do look very nice. I wonder what the signal level on the LoCo actually measures though.0 -

This was one of the issue raised Comreg's Pricing of Wholesale Services in the Wholesale Local Access (WLA) market consultation back in April 2017 and this appears to be fix for the issue.

Have a read through section 13.2, Recovery of connection costs for CGA / NGA services.Dominique Loud Waistband wrote: »Representatives from Comreg will appear before the Joint Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment in relation to broadband installation issues. 2pm kick-off tomorrow.

Comreg before the committee yesterday - https://www.oireachtas.ie/en/oireachtas-tv/video-archive/committees/1988
Mentioned at the committee, Comreg is to publish its final decisions on wholesale broadband market access review in the coming weeks following approval of its draft decision by the European Commission, which was notified to Comreg yesterday (video 33:50mins & 55:10mins). Note the proposed change to the installation charge.

Is there anything I should know/be wary of before the install. It will be overhead btw.
No attics unless you have a duct run through it, you must have a double socket free somewhere for the ONT and Router. They can run it down an eve and around the house if you ask nicely. Might want to drill the hole yourself, some of the monkeys they have never held a SDS drill before. Oh and if you have a duct, try to use it. It is better.0 -

My fibre is currently lying on the ground in 13mm ID heavy duty water pipe, transitioning to a 1m section of 13m qualpex. When I get around to trenching it, the qualpex will be rammed down into an expansion joint in the concrete apron around the house, popping up a few cm close to the wall of the house where it passes through a hole in the wall and into the boiler room where it rises and enters the loft space and then runs to the approximate centre of the house where the ONT and router are attached to a beam. I ran the cable in the loft and I suspect it was only made possible because I already had installed power in the loft and had a spare power board handy.
I think it's probably up to the individual installers willingness to depart from the rules. I also made it clear that running the cable overhead to the wall of the house was not on and the install wouldn't go ahead if that was the only option. The sales people told me with certainty that it could be strung to the chimney, which is only why I agreed in the first place.0 -
