SFP GPON ONU with Time Fiber Broadband

Hardware

  • ODI DFP-34X-2C3 (SC/APC - Time fiber termination is APC!)

Firmware

Information from Time ONR

Copy the information below into a text editor for later use.

  1. http://192.168.100.1/ (username: admin; password: default password is printed on the ONR label)
  2. System InformationDevice
    1. Device Type: HG8245X6-8N-30
    2. SN: HWTCXXXXXXXX
    3. Hardware Version: 32B0.E
    4. Software Version: V5R021C10S220
  3. AdvancedSystem ManagementONT Authentication
    1. Password: xxxxxxxxxx (identical to your PPPoE password in Time Self Care portal)

Sample values above are from my ONR, but do use the ones from your ONR to avoid raising suspicion from Time.

Configuration of SFP GPON ONU

GUI

  1. AdminGPON Settings
    1. PLOAM Format: ASCII (10 characters)
    2. PLOAM Password: [same as Time ONR → ONT Authentication → Password/PPPoE password]
    3. Serial Number: [same as Time ONR → SN]

CLI

  1. telnet 192.168.1.1 (admin:admin)
  2. Set the required OMCI parameters for Time OLT authentication
    • flash set GPON_ONU_MODEL [same as Time ONR → Device Type]
    • flash set OMCI_FAKE_OK 1
    • flash set OMCI_OLT_MODE 21 (required due to firmware bug that overwrites OMCI_SW_VER1 & OMCI_SW_VER2 at boot)
    • flash set OMCI_SW_VER1 [same as Time ONR → Software Version]
    • flash set OMCI_SW_VER2 [same as Time ONR → Software Version]
    • flash set PON_VENDOR_ID [same as Time ONR → first 4 characters of SN, e.g. HWTC]
  3. reboot

Configuration of Router

Set your router up with standard PPPoE WAN (no VLAN tagging required); credentials can be found in the Time Self Care portal.

If your router has an MTU setting, override the setting to the standard Ethernet MTU of 1500 bytes, as TIME's PPPoE termination accepts jumbo frames (standard PPPoE MTU is 1492 bytes). This removes the need for your router and/or PC from needing to fragment standard 1500-byte Ethernet frames.
