Where to best place your fibre ONT & fibre router

Your fibre network operator:

Your fibre network provider (Vuma, Octotel, Frogfoot, Openserve etc) will come to your property to install an ONT (optical network terminal). Your ISP (Vox or Telkom) will deliver your Fibre router after the ONT has been installed. Make sure that you advise your fibre network provider to position the ONT in the central point of your home, close to your devices, to ensure maximum WiFi coverage.
