All of Provider's Customers will receive an optical network terminal (“ONT”) that will physically connect to the indoor fiber drop at their premise. The type of ONT deployed will vary based upon commercial or residential purposes. For residential purposes, Provider will offer an ONT that by default acts as a residential gateway and provides 2.4 and 5.0 Ghz wireless networks, WiFi network management and connected device management capabilities at no additional charge. If a residential Customer declines to use this residential gateway configuration, the ONT can be configured in bridge mode and provide IP connectivity to Customer-provided equipment. For commercial purposes, an ONT configured in bridged mode will be provided when Customer can connect their commercial grade Customer Premise Equipment device to the Ethernet ports on the ONT. Provider will not configure any Customer-provided equipment. If Customer is provisioned in bridge mode, Provider will only validate that Service is up and active to the Customer’s bridged port on the ONT. Provider cannot perform any network management support on devices behind Customer-provided equipment. Provider's Customers may not connect their own ONT off the fiber drop inside their premise. Any attempt to do so will result in a complete loss of service until a Provider-provided ONT is configured, deployed and tested at the Customer's premises.
