Full Fibre Broadband
Hi There, I am on the old copper line for Broadband & Land Line and I've just upgraded to full fibre. What I am worried about is where it will all be fitted in the home. At the moment, my router & phone are at the back of my house (living room), and it's all plugged in behind the TV. My house is fully terraced. Where my front door is, I have no plug sockets. My closest plug sockets are down the hallway. Where will it all be set up. Got visions of wires coming all down my hall way?? Will it need to go by the front of the home??

Re: Full Fibre Broadband
FTTP does require a power supply for the Optical Network Terminal. Typically the ISP router goes adjacent to the ONT which is why the information specifies a double socket.
Typically an installer will want to bring the optical pigtail in through an external wall adjacent to such a power socket.
