    Hi Guys

    The wan cable that connects from the gigabox to the ONT box just inside the door is way to short. Does anyone know where i could pick up a 5m length version of this cable so i could move the router somewhere else ? Will any wan cable work ?

    Also could i use a netgear router plugged directly into the ONT box via wan cable instead of the gigabox ?

    Thanks in advance
