So where is the glasvezel genexis box?

I’m a new customer of KPN, my home recently received the glasvezel treatment. Technicians came, pulled the cable and installed a little box into which it goes. The box has no ethernet output, no conversion capabilities. I understand that I would need a genexis box for that. However, this did not arrive in my KPN package today. My internet switches over on the 18th, and I really need it for work. Please help me figure what needs to be done.

Just to recap: I can install the router that was sent, and set up the network myself. But I don’t have a converter box for the fiber. This is is a completely new fiber rollout. What should be done?

Hi @bvisser, for some reason no mechanic is planned to install the ONT. So I notified my colleagues to contact you to make the appointment. Will you please let me know when there was contact? 

And I also saw you use our ‘overstapservice’ due to that you will always have internet. We will notify your old USP to determine your subscription when KPN is up and running.

I assume an appointment is planned where an engineer of KPN will install the ONT (or NTU).

@bvisser Your glasvezel needs also an NTU( Network Termination Unit) before you can connect to your modem. This NTU will be installed by a mechanic of KPN en after that will be activated. You can't do that yourself ! If your NTU will be a Genexis unit i don't now. There are more units possible…..

Thank you, I am aware of the necessity of an NTU. However, I have not been informed of an appointment, neither by post nor email. Am I missing something?

I would have assumed that myself, however, I have received no communication from KPN regarding this. The person installing the cable said ‘the next guy will do it’, so I assumed a follow-up, but that did not happen. So now I am left wondering of KPN has a process for this, or will I be left without internet come the 18th when the contract changes over.

I hope that a moderator will soon react in order to sort out what went wrong in either the planning or the coordination.

Do you know how long this usually takes?

Everything is prima! :relaxed:  The technicians came yesterday and installed the NTU, and the connection with the router also went live. Enjoying the new fast internet!
