COST TO GET A NEW CONNECTION FROM franchisee of BSNL FTTH?

[varkey]

Depends on the local BSNL guys on when they provision the connection, for me it took around 24 hours.

It takes 24 hours, they usually don’t activate the connection until thr config is done on ONT.

Your landline number will say “the number is out of order” instead of “this number does not exist”

If it says the second one, then the SoftSIP is not configured from BSNL’s end.

Use this link and search for your name/number: -CUSTOMER VALUE- if it’s there than the billing has been started.

Second option is to go to selfcare and add your account.

1-1.5k would be cost of installation that is for wiring till your house. Remaining for the device.

Device with voice port and WiFi would cost approx 2-2.5k even if you buy from outside.

Don't confuse the device with a DSL modem, it's a totally different device.

It is a fibre broadband modem cum router isnt it and just needs configuring to BSNL? Also will your landline number change after this connection and do you need the normal telephone cable connection after this?
