Thanks Mike, Unfortunately that’s all I have so far - was a discussion on a .au peering slack group around ‘heads up for folks using those mikrotik vdsl modules, they’ll stop working in around 3 months’, and the paste from an NBN email. I’m assuming I’ll get a notification from AAPT wholesale (hahahah maybe?) soon, as we have a few in use on customer tails, so they’ll be notified by NBNco.?

Hi Damien, thanks for making us aware of it.
I was not aware of that issue yet, and will need to investigate further. There have been a few (small number) of firmware revisions since they started to enter the AU market some years back, but not certain whether the current model/version is included in their testing...
Can you offer me a link to the official notice, for reference?
and/or NBNco contact point if you have any specific to this note. (if not, I'll go through our usual channels)
I'll report back here once I have something useful to report ; )
Cheers!
Mike.

Does anyone know if there is an Updated firmware available for the Metanoia/Proscend VDSL SFP's?
There is a note from NBNCo relating to them being made unusable in the next three months due to incompatibility with new features being enabled on FTTN DSLAM ports. THe note seems to suggest by 'older' firmware that maybe there is a newer firmware available? Anyone know? Would be nice if I could keep using mine :)
"A Metanoia SFP device with older firmware failed to negotiate synchronization at all once SOS and ROC was enabled on the DSLAM port. RSPs with services identified with these devices (approximately 700 network wide) will be notified to coordinate an update or replacement of these devices before network SOS/ROC deployment occurs."
Thanks,
DG
