I installed opennet fibre optic partly because I m still under contract when I shifted, but also of the convenience of going wireless and speed. I did not install any data points. I was advised by the Telco technical to have the opennet installed on the second floor. As such, my mio is at my MBR. So far, at my place, the speed and connectivity at its optimum for all smart phones, ipads, lappies and smart tv. But only my desktop got problem. I bought an adaptor to tap the wireless, but the speed slower and sometimes connectivity disrupted. I think prob becos of adaptor but since seldom using the older desktop. I live with it. Hope the info helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But based on my observation, the cables came in from one of the bedrooms on the second floor. a trunking was catered for. since I wanted the OpenNet Box to be in mu MBR, the cables came through the false ceiling of my second floor passage before landing at the bottom corner of my MBR (near the one panel window). We managed to custom make a cabinet to hide the OpenNet Box. Maybe u can see the 3 pics attached for clarity.Hope the info helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
