Home Wiring Connections
Frontier
uses an Optical Network Terminal (ONT) and a Router to connect your
®
home to the Internet and enable Data, Voice, and TV Services. If the steps above
do not result in an Internet connection, check the cables on the ONT.
Ethernet-connected homes will require BOTH Ethernet and Coax connections from the
ONT to the Router for TV service.
Confirm the Coax connector on the ONT is securely connected to the home wiring
used by the router (or directly to the Router). Many ONT's require this connection for
both Data and TV services.
Confirm the Ethernet connector on the ONT is securely connected to the home
wiring used by the router (or directly to the Router). Many ONT's require this
connection for Data services.
To determine if the ONT is provisioned for Ethernet or MoCA, look for the light on the ONT:
- DATA light ON: Ethernet is provisioned
- MoCA or HPNA light ON: Coax is
provisioned
