Which light?
PON?

Since it's a new connection, config is technically supposed to be uploaded to your device automatically, but if PON is blinking, then they have to still register your device with the OLT, after which internet connectivity will be enabled.

Yup PON is blinking.

Not sure if they'll do it so late at night, and I'm also doubting whether they'll do it on a Sunday.

But not to worry, they'll get to it eventually. A friend of mine had GPON installed, and after splicing and setting up ONT at his house they left and it took 10 days for PON link to be enabled from their end.

What ONT is that?

Also, off-topic question but this is an active thread so.. Can a cash-on-delivery payment amount be changed after the item is shipped? iShopping messed up (again). TCS says keep 12,200 ready but I only owe them 6,700.

I think it can be changed from the TCS portal of the shipper, iShopping in this case.

However, whether or not that update is communicated to the rider.... can't say.

Ptcl guys installed the ont at my house today. Splicing will be done on monday because according to them the outside cable from the manhole is blocked.

is it possible for users to login into these ONT like we do on modems and check different stuff or it is not possible for fiber ONT?

It is possible. The settings that can be accessed vary depending on vendor and ISP.

Most stuff is locked and can only be viewed but not changed.

Spoke to some PTCL guys today. They said 10 or so more days. The delays are due to the insistence of locals to keep their existing numbers, otherwise everything is ready.

It's taking this long because PTCL changed the way that numbers are assigned with GPON. Instead of just having one landline number, when a new GPON account is created, one PSTN number is assigned, which is the one you'll call from and which will show on others caller ID, and one 'virtual number' which is used for billing purposes and account management.
The virtual number is longer in length than a regular 051 pindi/isb number and can NOT be called.

The reason for this is that GPON allows users to have 2 PSTN lines on one connection. Since all the ONTs being provided have 2 RJ11 telephone ports, they can configure it in such a way that you can get 2 landline numbers over one physical line.

Since people in your area want to keep their old landline numbers, they have to merge their old existing accounts with only one number, into a GPON account with a PSTN number and one virtual number. That takes a lot of extra configuration, and I imagine they have to do it for almost everyone, so it's no surprise they're delaying it.

Screw the people then. Can't deal with a bit of change.
