The CSP box should have been seated above the existing covering i.e covering the fibre cable etc... poorly done.

Does anyone know if OR have an email I can send them my pic of the install.

If they are happy to leave it like that I still want them to send someone to seal the hole they drilled.

Out of curiosity, what's the technical difference? Is this way any better?


No difference in quality of service between the 2. However if your dog decided to chew up the fibre cable indoors then a new cable would need to be run all the way to the DP. Whereas if you had a CSP box on the outer wall, then only the cable between the ONT and CSP would be replaced, not the whole shebang.

Get in touch with your CP/ISP, and ask them to send someone from Openreach to complete the job properly.

I thought they were not supposed to bend the fibre at 90 degrees. Must be either a large hole or a tight bend to get that fibre through the hole. Even if it doesn’t need an outer box you’d think they’d put a cable entry cover on. Maybe the person who installed this worked for Sky before.

Yeah I'm wondering why Openreach didn't do that for oldskool's install, like they did mine >>here<<
Poor workmanship or d/t technical reason?

Yeah, entire setup is bodged to be honest but I'm getting 900/90 so can't complain until it breaks. The inside is even worse in terms of bends.

Looks like you got the Huawei ONT fitted and not the latest Nokia ONT.

I must admit I love you're new speeds but the install is very shoddy IMO.

I can’t see your picture , the link won’t open.

The hole should certainly have mastic to stop water ingress.

There are purpose made kits providing a tube to pass the fibre through, then caps to neatly cover either end. Mastic should then be used to seal that cap.

‘Inside out’ process not followed.

Incorrect technique through the wall.

Not good.
