Hi Everyone,
I have signed up for the Superfast 2 Plan and have the activation date of today. It is still not working and therefore wanted to check if I am doing everything correctly.
I have also just moved into this apartment so am still figuring out how everything works so apologies for the stupid question!
Connecting to the ONT
I think this is the ONT that they are talking about, however there is no "Port 1" to plug in the ethernet cable. There is however, a phone line that I can plug in to the ONT (and use the microfilter to connect into the Router).
There are many other cables in this ONT but a couple of them are just connecting from 1 port of the ONT to another so I don't think they do anything?
The ONT is then connected to this Openreach box as per below - the green cable in the pic above is the same cable as the black cable below.
Thanks and appreciate any help!

Thanks but unfortunately still no luck (the red internet light on the router is still flickering) - I'll report back tomorrow!
Thanks and appreciate your help

I also tried this to make sure I did not misunderstand what you said - also did not work

This should not be that difficult!

Seems that there are a couple of varieties of ONT out there - the third image, with your router connected to the yellow port should be the correct one. I'd leave it connected to that port for a few hours and then possibly give support a call if you still cannot connect.

Thanks - been on chat with support this morning and thats what they said as well (they said it should be activated in a couple of hours) - so fingers crossed...
Thanks so much for your help!!!!!!!
