Location of CSP
BT came today and put the CSP on the outside of our house. ready for the SKY engineers to come do the install. Where the situated it is exactly opposite our Consumer Electrical Panels on the inside. As I am unsure what needs to happen for the ONT to be installed, will this be an issue? It will not be possible to safely drill through the wall at that location. It would be safe about 6 inches to one side though. Ideally if asked, I would have had it in a differnt location so it wasn't blocked on the other side of the wall. We live in a mid terrace.

Re: Location of CSP
There does have to be a hole drilled through for the optical pigtail from the CSP to ONT, but that doesn't have to be directly on the other side of the wall: ours is several metres away on an external run.
