Mac Binding on Excitel Fiber ONUs

[JB701]

they gave me this fancy AC ONT even though I only paid 750. Unfortunately I cannot figure out how to bridge this.

Model: DBC BC-323DAC-HGX

First of all Bridge option is grayed out in WebUi and I had to change it using Inspect Element.

But then, when I cloned the MAC of this to my PFSense router. It disconnected the LAN port. Idk some MAC Conflict.

Without MAC it won't authenticate PPPoE.

Also, this pile of shit broadcasts the www.excitel.com SSID.

Get a dumb onu from the lco

 

[JB701]

I don't think they have it in stock

I'll open a ticket for MAC Reset see what happens

 

[Sushubh]

Mac reset used to be an option on their portal and app. Probably removed for fiber accounts.

 

[JB701]

yep, its gone now. ill try my other ONU. it does Register with OLT. But PPPoE don't seem to work. Not sure if they are validating Serial No and MAC of ONU.

Going triple NAT for now :/

Probably removed for fiber accounts

Nopes its removed only for users who have ₹2000 onu.

i can't seem to locate it on my account. plus the 4999 plan now show 200mbps lol. i do wonder if they would downgrade me to 200mbps when my current plan expires later this month. would be very annoying because 9 fucking months. or maybe it would be stuck at 100mbps.

Never mind. Mac Reset option is present here: Excitel.

@Sushubh go to profile section on my excitel portal. U will find the option to reset mac id and its only available to people with dumb onu and single band wifi onu.

Serial code/mac id binding matters?
Recently changed my router attached to dumb onu. Only userid n pwd were added. No mac or serial change needed.

it only matters for onu if you are on ftth infra and matters for router if you are normal ethernet network. for ethernet, you can reset it from your end but for onu, i dont think we can
