    My fellow Etisalat sufferer

    I have yet to see any ONT provided by Etisalat which does the pppoe for you and provides dhcp to your Wan.

    Maybe, you have logged into the Huewai provided Fiber box, were able to set up pppoe - and then after a few hours found Etisalat rewrote all your config with the old one (They use Huawei proprietary TR69)

    On a second note (if Etisalat has indeed provided you with dhcp), whenever you see the timeouts, see if you can ping 8.8.8.8(or any cloud dns). Etisalat keeps on rotating proxies and some are not good. Etisalat itself would detect and put you on correct proxy. Till it does that you will see timeouts (and it will self heal). Aksing you to do ping at the time of timeouts only. Their DNS is also roundrobin though we use 213.42.42.42 (Do you?)

    Also, I hope you have workaround with their infamous uPnP and Vlan issues.

    Rfcat - Thanks for help but this poster has Etisalat specific issues. I too suffer - but once I get hang of how things work, I accept to live with it. 

    PS - Why your ONT is 100mbps? Etisalat changed that to new ones which are 1GB. Which package are you on- Home or Business ?
