We want all New Zealanders to have the best possible broadband experience. That’s why we are so focused on encouraging Kiwis who have Chorus fibre available to them to take up the opportunity.  As our intact fibre base grows we believe being able to connect customers faster and more efficiently will be vital to them and your business. This offer supports the ability to turn the Chorus 3rd Generation ONT into a residential gateway with Wi-Fi capabilities. You will no longer need to provide a physical modem, enabling faster service activation and a simplified customer experience for your customer. This is game-changing in the intact fibre space, where a 3rd generation ONT, configured in RGW mode will allow you to connect to fibre quickly.

As part of our work here to support you to connect your customers faster using our new RGW Wi-Fi services, we are extending our ‘Chorus ONT Residential Gateway’ Offer to 31 December 2021.
