Re: FTTP ONT location

In reply to a post by gkw:
I'm also interested in doing this, albeit an open car port rather than a closed garage. I know it's *technically* possible, and I already have CAT6 running to the car port for an AP, but what I don't know if whether this would be allowed under a typical ISP's installation guidelines / policy - i.e. to situate the ONT somewhere other than the main house.

Definitely don’t do this. The kit is designed for an internal install. None of the connectors or indeed casing is adequately protected / rated.

I doubt whether the installing engineer would agree to install it there in any case.

There's not a hope in hells chance that any engineer would install in this situation.

If they did and the job was audited they would almost certainly face disciplinary proceedings.
