And that would allow people to move ISP easily?
In Japan, there are some ISP that bundle the contract (they deal with NTT (the fiber provider) themselves). In that case, if you are moving ISP, you need to re-do the entire contract, including another set-up fee for the fiber line.
- throw0101a 6y agoAFAICT, to switch, you go to your current ISP's portal and click on "cancel". Your fibre drop is then disassociated from them, and then when you reboot your router you get back the "which ISP do you want?" page. Ammon Fibre from the Ars story: * https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHGhNwzpXLw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHGhNwzpXLw The fibre line is pre-existing just like your electrical or natural gas probably is now: there's no re-setting-up that component. You are in a default VLAN that gives you options, and when you sign up the VLAN is changed.
