Netplus Broadband Bridging / Genexis Modem Unlock

[champa.rando]

I have Netplus Broadband in Patiala (I hate this ISP but only reason to stay with them is 9999GB FUP Cap whereas Airtel or BSNL gives only 3333 and netplus provides 100mbps for price of 499).

So I've been provided with a Genexis E4222 ONT and it is locked extremely down. Even Wi-Fi settings I had to change with HTML (god damn).
The support is actual rubbish and has no idea about jack shit. So, I wanted to firstly bridge my Genexis Modem and use my own OPNSense router firewall instead but I just cannot bridge it. Changing HTML never works. Anyone know how to bridge or unlock this modem? I have no option to upload a firmware update image so all the videos on youtube showing unlock cannot work. SSH access has root password which I have no idea of.

I previously had a Huawei with BSNL which had a superuser access account called telecomadmin admintelecom - does something like this exist for Genexis?

PS: I tried using my own ONT (fully unlocked) with this netplus connection, I tried cloning MAC and even S/N but it did not work - so I believe they do some sort of signing. I do not have a large idea of fibre back-end tech.

Also, I asked the local netplus modem provider dude what details does he send to IT team when they replace an ONT for someone for example. He said we send SN of ONT and MAC to activate the router. So Netplus does some SN/MAC filtering to allow an ONT to initiate I guess (if this info helps someone).

Do you even end up consuming more than, 3333 GB?
Maybe you can get off from some local ISP, they usually provide dumb ONU to work on.

I can make do with 3333GB FUP but the killer is 100 mbps at 499 per month. Others charge 1.5x that/or provide only 40mbps,

I mean, you want dirt cheap solutions with over the top support and perks....
What are you complaining about?
Your problem is almost first world.

 

[champa.rando]

I'm not complaining. I made the post to ask if anyone has successfully bridged a Netplus FTTH Connection.
Don't reply if you don't have something meaningful to say.

You're the one that starts showing off your 'first world nonsense'. If you do not have any experience with this ISP just don't bother replying - it's not that difficult buddy.

Well, I did give you a "meaningful" option, since you were so sterned not to use airtel or bsnl.

Maybe you can get off from some local ISP, they usually provide dumb ONU to work on.

But I do hope you'd get the solution you are looking for very soon.

Okay appreciated but I have 2.5 months left so I need to make do with it for now and since I have the time left, why not try to see if anyone successfully managed it. If so, it's a win win, else I can always move back to Airtel.

The thing was I tried a different unlocked ONT, cloned MAC and tried to change S/N. Didn't really work so any idea what else an ISP Might use to detect/activate an ONT?

What is the ONU state; when you try to use a different ONU?

 

[champa.rando]

I removed that setup - I can try tonight again, but from my memory. The other ONU after MAC and SN clone it just never connected to the ISP's internet via WAN settings. I setup the VLAN 2609 exactly as it was in factory ONU, setup same parameters and the connection is IPoE btw (not PPPoE), but the unlocked ONU got no internet at all. No IP obtained either in that process from WAN.

Didn't bother checking logs back then though.

i have same isp and have bridge mode enabled,i had only user details not admin which was changed after firmware update(fully locked),the thing is i have zte f660 ont which has exploit that you can enable bridge mode via inspect element even in user mode,you can create new wan profile or delete it,but i have no idea about genexis.They are using Cisco and juniper olt's.
also i have a issue that i cant clone my ont's mac from TP-Link router as my internet doesnt connect with that mac like its being blocked via zte ont,so i just set my ont on voice mode and because the ip stays more than 1 week,i just set that ip in my router.
their service is sh!t like the customer care cuts call and local technician stops responding after i told him to set my ont in bridge mode and assign me static cgnat ip even though they have tr069 control over ont from backend
