cant make GPON ONU to work

RouterOS General
1

Hello all, I have an Alcatel I-240W-T which my ISP provided me as modem (telmex prodigy México), it uses fiber optic to get internet. I want to skip the ISP provided router and use my own a RB2011 + GPON ONU from Mikrotik, but I cant make it work.


This is how I tested:

Alcatel I-240W-T in bridge mode and connected via ethernet to mikrotik router, then pppoe dialing, internet works perfect!

Get rid of the Alcatel I-240W-T and plug fiber directly into the GPON ONU + RB2011, then pppoe dialing, I can’t get internet at all, pppoe cant get connected, I also cloned the Alcatel mac address into the GPON ONU sfp device and that wont work either.

Any suggestion?

Sometimes you need to clone an ONU ID and a password to connect too. But this is impossible on ONU from MikroTik.

And therefore will need to contact the ISP to allow new GPON device

Thank you I will try with my ISP!

5

What is the Serial Number format of the SFPONU is it 16 Hexadecimal Digits (0123456789ABCDEF)?

6

My ISP just said, they will only support my actual Alcatel Router (they provided me that one), so they just ignored my request about the new Mikrotik GPON.

Mikrotik GPON serial pattern: 15 digits, example: FG1537TWGPA04T8
Alcatel GPON serial pattern: 12 hex digits (starting with ALCL), example: ALCLF0824B23

It turns out the SN isn’t written on the module itself and the numbers written are for the product itself not what the SFPOUN uses to authenticate with the OLT and the SN starts with: MKTKxxxxxxxx (x being hexadecimal digits)

8

thanks, is there a way to find out the MKTKxxxxxxxx SN?

9

Try using ethtool commands like

ethtool -m

I will receive one tomorrow will see what I can find.

Hi
Could someone upload a screen capture of the spf menu?
I have bought the new module but, when I pluged in, it dosen´t appear name, version or serial number, I don´t know if the module is faulty
I have tried with RouterOS v6.33.5 and RouterOS v6.34rc34
I have CRS125-24G-1S-2HnD frimware version 3.24 and CRS226-24G-2S+ frimware version 3.22
Thanks

Try this: Connect the GPON ONU on SPF then REBOOT Mikrotik Router OS, then It should work, I can take screen shot for you.

the problem persist

please take a screenshot and another for the gpon
thanks

I experienced the same problem as you, set autonegotiation OFF, and then set a link to 1gbps, screenshot is coming

That only happened when I plug the GPON on SPF+, on regular SPF it works normal.

14

Here it is

At this case, no fiber optic cable was connected, just plugged to screenshot purposes, I still cant get the Serial number MKTKxxxxxxxx pattern, thats the one I need to tell my ISP, but I dont know how to get it…

16

I think it is possible to obtain the MKTKxxxxxxxx SN by reading the eeprom of the module and then searching for the hex code: 4d 4b 54 4b (which is hex for MKTK) the 8 hex digits after it will give you the rest of the SN if you have a SFP PCIe adapter then just boot linux open terminal and write: sudo ethtool -m
That wil give you a dump of the eeprom of the SFPONU in which you could search for the SN.
I got the SFPONU last week and next week the SFP PCIe adapter will arrive then I will check if this method works or not. :smiley:

with spf and with spf+

something else to try

Check this table, maybe something is broken with the GPON or it is not compatible with your Routerboard

http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/MikroTik_SFP_module_compatibility_table

Please post more information about the MKTKxxxxxx when you have available information…

Thank you all

CRS125-24G-1S compatible
CRS226-24G-2S+ compatible
form http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/MikroTik_SFP_module_compatibility_table
that´s my hardware
what do you mean with MKTKxxxxxx ?
GPON serial number? How to get it?
thanks

the MTKTXXXXXX was a message to ToTheCLI, we are trying to find the device SN wich is the one is needed for the ISP for auth purposes.

Maybe something is broke with your GPON device :frowning:
