Telus Wi-Fi Hub re-enabling wifi despite being in full bridge mode?! DHCP chaos.
Hello All, First post here... have had Telus 750/750 for a week now. This morning (at about 3 am), it seems my Telus Wi-Fi Hub (white diaper genie style), re-enabled the WiFi services on it, de...
- SFP and SFP+ are not compatible hence why I mentioned the need for a media convertor.
You could also use a Ubiquiti Edge Router ER-X-SFP but it's got some issues with the Nokia SFP Telus uses and is not unifi.
With the media converter your simply converting the fiber SFP which is max 1Gbps to single 1Gbps Ethernet port you can just plug into your current hardware.
If I can just plug direct into SFP from the fibre coming into the house that would make things even easier.
What do you think of going with something like Ubiquiti's UniFi Dream Machine Pro? Has a 10G SFP+ port for WAN, which should be backwards compatible?
It's still in early access, but hopefully should be generally available soon.
Features:
- 8-Port gigabit switch with 10G SFP+ port
- Dual WAN ports for redundancy and load balancing: 10G SFP+ and 1G RJ-45
I was probably going to go UDM Pro anyhow to simplify my install, instead of running Cloud Key Gen 2+ and a USG security gateway.

Not entirely true. There is backwards compatibility, at least with the Ubiquiti equipment. You can put an SFP cable/ONT into an SFP+ port -- you may need to force it to 1Gbps, but other than that, there's no issues.

The Ubiquiti Security Gateway Pro (USG-4P) has SFP ports and works perfectly with the Nokia SFP provided by Telus. I have three units all set up and working correctly with this.
Thanks. Will look into a media converter to eliminate the Telus Hub
