Hi,
I’m trying to use Omnia and specially its SFP port to replace the ONT / router from my provider - Orange France.
There’ quite a long thread already with people trying to do the same thing with Swiss Fiber7 Fiber7 (Switzerland) SFP Compatibility
There it seems to boil down to “call Your operator and make them disable auto-negotiation on their side”.
In my case however, before I do that (and possibly break their own ONT/router) I’d like to check two things:
-
Has there been any news so far since the Fiber7 thread has died down (~February 2017)? Updates to the drivers, etc.
-
Aparently the sfpswitch.py has a “force_mode” that allows it to set no_negotioation on the Omnia side. Does this help anything? Where is this mode set? Can I run the script manually, without breaking anything?
PS Just in case, I guess the best person to mention in this post seems to be @brill
PPS All the other symptoms on my side seem to be equal to the others, save for one thing : my adapter doesn’t seem to have any I2C.
Following are whatever logs that I think might be relevant:
–i2cdump (seems like there’s nothing there)
