Why does only the first Ethernet port on my ONT work?
An ONT (Optical Network Terminal) can support multiple internet connections at fibre speeds.
If you have purchased a single Fibre internet connection through Inspire Net then it will be made available from one of the ports on the ONT.
If you require a 2nd fibre internet connection ( another monthly subscription) then that would be enabled on a second port on the ONT.
