The decision is quite silly actually then, why in the first place they supply a 4-port fibre modem(ONT) to customers then if their policy is only to restrict 1 ISP per premise.
Even Google Fiber Jack, France SFR, TNB Allo also supply single port mini ONT only to their customers.
4-port fibre modem(ONT) more opportunity to pocket money in tenders?
The reason why Nucleus Connect Singapore provides a 4 port ONT(only 4 ethernet ports with no phone jacks) was because they allowed upto 4 simultaneous ISPs per fibre modem each supplying their own routers.
If you only allow 1 ISP per premise at any time, why you supply a 4 port ONT?
This contradicts the reason between both ways.
Just be frank, they don't want customers to switch easily and they want to monopolize the line prioritizing their own Unifi brand.
The other reason is that Unifi routers will use port 1 of the 4 ports while other competing ISPs use port 2.
Port 1 will be capped higher than your subscribe plan while port 2 which is for other ISPs will always be capped exactly as your subscribed plan giving you a "buffer bloat" effect which results in speeds lower than what you subscribe because of TCP overheads.
If they were to be like TNB allo all ISPs including its own City Broadband use only 1 single ethernet port, then everyone gets the same treatment and rule without the "buffer bloat" condition which only applies to ethernet port 2.
These are TM's dirty monopolistic tricks to make their own Unifi brand look better than its competitors sharing their network.
then the nucleus connect model was "scrapped" later.. isps preferred to pool their resources at layer 1 (lastmile dark fibre) rather than layer 2/3 (common OLT). in the first place sg has guaranteed 2 fibre strands and port per household, so its possible to have 2 ONT running simultaneously (and up to 10gbps each)Even Google Fiber Jack, France SFR, TNB Allo also supply single port mini ONT only to their customers.
