Model: ER707-M2  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.2.2

Hi.

 

I switched from a homelab pfSense PC which was using my ISPs SFP module for basically fibre straight into it (Bypassing the ISP fibre router). This worked great with the correct settings. However using the same SFP module and settings in the Omada router nothing works or connects. Is it very finicky with the SFP module?

 

The SFP module is a CT Systems SFP-31W2A

 

Hardware version on the router is V1.20 and I have read people using other omada routers like the 605 and 7206 with this ISP without issues.

 

Best regards.

Hi @Gromit83 

Thanks for posting in our business forum.

Nobody really guaranteed that it can work. If you happened to read my replies to the questions like this, it is not guaranteed.

Some ISPs can allow you to use the direct fiber with a module. That does not require a modem. Some do not.

The modules may not be compatible with the router. That could also lead to a problem like what you have now.

Well. Guess I'm returning it and getting a refund then.

 

Thanks for the input.
