Little help with PureFibre topography
Hi, I'm currently a Shaw customer. My Shaw wifi modem is bridged and I use my own networking gear. I'm moving into a building pre-wired for Telus PureFibre and am thinking of switching. I wan...
The black box in the lower right corner is actually an Arris 4k PVR set top box for Optik TV. Telus wires up some MDUs like this where the Internet and TV is all ready to go for whoever moves in and they don't need to send an installer. The NOKIA card that is on that box behind the zip tie is just the serial number and registration information for the SFP ONT that is inside the Arkadyan WiFi Hub (green plug). The installer just left it there in case any future techs needed that information.
If you want to use your own router you'll have to connect it to the Arkadyan WiFi Hub placed in bridged mode. The WAN/LAN plug should be fine for that. You can unplug the PVR if you don't subscribe to Optik TV to free up some space but make sure you keep it in case you move again as Telus likes to leave suites like this ready for all services like you see here.
Ahhhh...I see. Perfect thanks!
Do you know if bridge mode for the Arkadyan hub is a user accessible config or will Telus need to do that (remotely I assume).
Thanks!
