I am in a satellite town of Chandigarh and have an Airtel FTH for the last six years. Until a few days ago I was on a Nokia 2425G ONT router with 200MBps connection that worked very well offering decent performance throughout my large house. The Nokia however was a 5G router. I used a Netgear Nighthawk in tandem for a 6G Wifi and was quite satisfied.
But I was curious on why Airtel was not providing a 6G Router. Besides the Airtel provided Nokia ONT had not received any security updates since installation. So I contacted Airtel to upgrade their ONT. After initially declining they sent a ZyXcel ONT AOT 5221ZY which is now running for the last five days.
Daksh has provided a very detailed writeup on its performance and I will not add with tech details. I would like to add that I am far from happy with the new router and even though it is 6G its performance is pathetic. Works satisfactorily just under the router but the performance considerably degrades as one moves away. Forget about internet speeds even the link speeds are pretty poor contributing to an overall sad performance for Airtel's flagship product. My earlier Nokia was a far superior performer even at 5G.
Like Daksh I support the view that Airtel should have relied on Nokia.
The ZyXcel ONT AOT 5221ZY is certainly not worth the upgrade. I wont dream of upgrading to 1Gpbs with this router.
Having commented on this particular router, Airtel otherwise has been an excellent service provider. I have never faced any network issues over the last six years. Downtimes have been minimal and restored within a few hours.
