General Opticomm FAQs
Will I be able to use my telecommunications devices
during set up?
During the set up of your Opticomm connection, you will temporarily lose
access to your existing services. This includes your internet, telephone
device(s) and medical, re and security alarms. It’s important you have an
alternative form of communication handy during the set up, such as a
charged mobile phone.
What happens to the Opticomm Optical Network Terminals (ONT)
and other equipment if I move?
All Opticomm supplied equipment at your premises is the property of
Opticomm and should not be removed from your home.
I rely on a safety-critical device, do I need to do anything before I
connect to theOpticomm access network?
If you use a medical alarm, re alarm or lift emergency phone, contact your
device provider. They will check if it works on the Opticomm access network,
or whether you’ll need an alternative solution, such as a wireless/mobile
alarm solution.
Will my monitored security alarm work on theOpticomm access
network?
It’s possible your monitored security alarm will work with the Opticomm
access network. But you should check with your alarm provider before
switching. You should also test your alarm on the day your new plan is
activated.
Will my devices work during a power blackout?
Devices connected to theOpticomm access network will not work during
a power blackout. You should consider having an alternative form of
communication handy, such as a charged mobile phone. If you have a safety-
critical device like a medical alarm, re alarm or lift emergency phone, speak
to your device provider about alternative solutions before you connect to the
Opticomm access network.This way, you can keep your service active during
a power blackout.
Change your Wi-Fi network and password
The Wi-Fi details we install at the factory are designed to be unique and
above all secure, but we understand that you may want to change them
to something else.
If you previously had an internet service with us or
another provider, did you know you can re-use those
old Wi-Fi network details (network name and password)
on your new modem? This means all your devices will
just automatically connect and you won’t have to go
around the house reconnecting everything.
Either way, to change your Wi-Fi details, ensure you are rst
connected to your home network and simply open a browser window
and type in http://192.168.0.1
The user name is admin and the password is the same as the
Wi-Fi password found on your new fridge magnet (don’t worry,
you can change these too if you like!).
Once you are logged in, click on the tab marked ‘Wi-Fi’ and away you go…
just don’t forget to click ‘Save’ once you have made your changes.
