You can't fix it yourself without some specialized equipment. Its not like it is copper cable where you can twist together and it will work. hahaha

The fiber cable? First time I heard dog bite cable, usually rats bite those cables.

thanks all LOL
my dog is still a Puppy, so very curious and bites everything it can get its teeth to. Would have to place cable out of its reach.
is there any tech service here who can fix it today for me ? paid for of course. TIME service will get back to me, and I dont want to wait too long.

Buy from lazada
It broke not due to Time's fault, so probably they will charge you as well to replace it

The dog or rat bite because of the fiber cable light, just put the fiber cable inside a piping will be fine.

LOL, fiber light? you made my day laugh.gif
no one can see the fiber cable light, it's tightly sealed, not even animals

Animals like rats are attracted to chew on the fiber cables due to the silicon gel used in the sleeving of the cables, they thought it's food
whereas puppies will chew on almost anything when their teeth are growing

as for TS, since you can show us which part got chewed, best is to wait for Time technician to come in to access and pay them for the repair

morning all. TIME boys came and replaced the connector since the original connector was the One-Use type. cut off the front bit where the puppy bit. Lucky lost just 2 feet of the cable.

30rm charge, which i will deduct from puppy's weekly allowance. smile.gif
