## On-site Investigation and Diagnostics

* **Perform preliminary checks and testing before escalation**
  * Power-cycle the NTU and CPE (router/firewall).
  * Replace or reseat cables between the NTU and CPE.
  * Test from an isolated setup (direct connection to NTU) to confirm if the fault persists.
* **Document findings from in-house checks**
  * Record any observed lights/status on the NTU.
  * Save screenshots of speed test results, traceroutes, or diagnostics.
  * Note the time, duration, and pattern of any outages or slowdowns.
* **Provide timely site access**
  * Ensure someone authorised is available to grant entry to the premises during the scheduled visit.
  * If applicable, arrange security clearance or escort for visiting technicians.
* **Be present (or arrange representation) during technician visits**
  * Assist the technician in locating equipment, wall sockets, and cabling.
  * Provide any requested information about the building wiring or network setup.
* **Avoid delays and no-fault charges**
  * Be ready at the agreed time to avoid missed appointments.
  * Ensure internal wiring and devices are accessible and powered on before the visit.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://kb.hostednetwork.com.au/support/services/connectivity/aapt-fibre/getting-started.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
