Need help with configuration of huawei HG8145V5

[JB701]

my guess is Airtel has the PPPoE Server on a VLAN other than 100 or 0? Not sure

the serial number is checked for PON only right?

So I've been reading a bit on GPON Authentication and it appears that many ISPs (including Airtel?) use OMCI based configuration on top of SN.

@JB701 This is a very interesting read. Thank you for sharing. Guess no luck with your yet?

@JB701 Was this HG8145V5 initially on Airtel before you got hold of it?

I bought mine from OLX and it had an Airtel sticker on it. The airtel tech support guy was able to provision it manually.

I am wondering whether your device has the OEM firmware or the Airtel firmware. If it is the former then it could be tricky.

 

[JB701]

I got the OEM one sadly. Any clue on why the PPPoE servers aren't showing up despite PON working?
