Migration Question

Hi all,

I've decided to stop just lurking around these excellent forums and ask a question. I'm finding learning about broadband in depth very interesting.

I have checked the sites FAQ's and done a search however i cannot find any answers to my query. Which i guess might suggest it's a dumb question, if so i apologise!

I will fire away anyway, i am migrating from AAisp to BT Broadband next week. I am unsure whether it is good idea to shut down my old router on the morning of migration day and then connect/install the home hub etc when it arrives? Or does this not make any difference to anything what so ever and just do a swap? Its been a while since i did a migration and can't remember what happened last time.

Thanks in advance,
Matt.

Wait until you lose service through your old ISP then swap over.

gomezz,

Sounds logical! Thank you for your reply.

Matt.

Although I stayed with BT when updating to FTTC, I seem to remember BT / OR saying don't unbox the HH3 as their Engineer will see to it (which he did).

G3UZF,

Thanks for the response. Not lucky enough to be getting Fibre though. Basic old 20CN here for me so no engineer due (yet)!

Matt.
