Jeroen Dangremond, Manager Customer Operations at Open Dutch Fiber, explains how fiber optic is installed and what you can expect.
1. Check if fiber is available
Before fiber optic can be installed, you first need to check if it is available at your address. Open Dutch Fiber is laying the network in the major cities and villages of the Netherlands. Do you want to know if your home will get fiber optic? You can check this with our postcode check on our website.

Jeroen Dangremond explains why this is important: "Fiber optic is being installed in phases. Some streets are already completed, while others still have to wait. With the postcode check, you can immediately see if your address is already being worked on."
2. Let a technician install everything.
When fiber optic is available, you don't have to do much yourself. A technician will come by to arrange everything for you. This is what the technician does:
● Connecting the fiber optic cable on the fiber optic termination unit (FTU) in your home.
● Connecting the modem and check if everything is working.
● Provide an explanation. about how to connect to wifi or a network cable.
Jeroen emphasizes why a technician does this: "Fiber optic is fragile and must be connected precisely. Our technicians ensure that everything works correctly right away, so you have fast and stable internet immediately."
All you have to do is be at home during the appointment. After that, you can immediately enjoy stable and fast fiber-optic internet.
