Swapping out the linksys for a new router

When I first had Toob installed - the City Fibre guy told me that if you want to use your own router you literally just have to plug the new one into the City Fibre box, in place of the LinkSys one provided. Is it really that easy?

I'm looking at either adding a router with a better range - or maybe a mesh system... but I don't really want to have to faff about updating settings somewhere ;-) And I've been with providers in the past that wouldn't even allow you to use your own at all.

Thanks for any help.

ONT identification

Can anyone help me recognise this ONT - I have had CityFibre (Vodafone) coming up on 8 years now, so I assume this is the original and is only 1Gb capable?

Reason for asking - looking to move away from Vodafone (they won't offer me a faster service because they still have no upgrade path for people on the original ONT....) - but a couple of the other ISP's I've looked at *think* I have a faster one, as they are offering "no engineer visit required" installs.

Looking for new broadband provider

Hello,

i’m currently with virgin media but my contract runs out in about 2-3 weeks.. And i’m looking to switch to cityfibre.

However i’m having difficulties finding who to chose,

I’m currently stuck between; Rise, Vodafone, Idnet, and Zen.

——

I’m seeing that some are significantly more money like zen&idnet for the same advertised speed and cityfibre?

Some help would be great thank you!
