I mean unless you really need to use 1fichier, then you can use other sites instead. As for the ONT, you know the ONT is similar to a modem, all it does is take the raw signal and then output it to the router which is the first device that actually handles any data. The ONT itself does not do any routing or anything related to IP as all it does is take the fiber signal and converts it to the Ethernet signal that your router understands and from the looks of it, your router also is also ISP provided which means you are limited to what you can do including changing the configuration and even the software among other things. The only way you can even use your own router is if you had access to change the Technicolor to run in bridge mode which means it will just take the input signal and send it out without doing any IP routing or firewall and then the router you put behind it on your own will actually be doing the routing.

So, to even update it, I'd have to run it in bridge mode, whatever that is? Would I need a second router for that?

What do you mean by "verbal names"? Now that you mentioned it, a name showed up and I think it was my network's. Are you talking about it?

How can I know my ONT's maker? So, even if other users have the same ISP as I do, they may not have blocks if they're from another city or region? Many files I download are only on 1fichier.

It's easy, IP address is numbers. verbal name would be like microsoft.com. A DNS can do lookup both ways.
name to IP:
nslookup www.microsoft.com
Server: dns.google
Address: 2001:4860:4860::8888

Non-authoritative answer:

or ip to name:
nslookup 23.33.17.164

Address: 2001:4860:4860::8888

Name: a23-33-17-164.deploy.static.akamaitechnologies.com
Address: 23.33.17.164

The reason it comes back as akamai and not Microsoft is because Microsoft pays Akamai so when you access Microsoft, it will always be connecting to the local Akamai server that is closest to the DNS you are using. This is how Content Delivery Networks work.

1fichier.com is the verbal name and the IP can translate back to the verbal name. You can have unlimited names going to a single IP address but a IP address can only have one name assigned to it.
nslookup 1ficher.com
Server: dns.google
Address: 2001:4860:4860::8888

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: 1ficher.com
Address: 208.91.196.105

and in the case of 1fichier.com, the DNS handing the IP mapping is timing out when it comes to DNS lookups:
nslookup 208.91.196.105
Server: dns.google
Address: 2001:4860:4860::8888

If it's not your browser or your computer, then the problem is the ISP and the routing as it could be blocking based on IP or something else. What you should do is write to 1fichier support at 1fichier.com: Cloud Storage and see what they say. Should always start from the connection before talking about the apps including the browser. Can you post the output for the following two commands from a command prompt?

nslookup 1fichier.com

tracert 1fichier.com

Also, have you tried incognito/private mode in the browsers to see if the problem still happens?

Well, it should be on the ONT itself but ONT is not your property so you can't touch it or change the settings . Well, that is not what I meant. You have to start backwards. If people have the problem in the same city and region, then you know the problem is at a local level. Now if they don't have the problem, then the problem is isolated and only to you. If you ask people in another city or region and they do not have the problem, then you will have to work with everything that is beneath the region as in every city that is behind that region. What you are trying to do is first determine if the issue is local or not before going up the chain. Similar to even in the same city, if no one has the issue, it does not mean the issue does not exist. At that point, you want to see if other people in your local neighborhood has the issue or not and if they don't, you work down the chain, like a certain street, then if not, your block on the street, etc. You basically want to find where the problem is common at the most local level as possible.

So, to even update it, I'd have to run it in bridge mode, whatever that is? Would I need a second router for that?

No, to run in bridge mode is a setting in the ISP's router to turn off all the firewall and other functions of a router so you can use your router behind it since remember in your case, the ISP router is not yours and you cannot use your own router until you have access to turn on bridge mode on the ISP router which serves one purpose, the ISP router no longer control or firewall any of your IP traffic as all it does is acts like the ONT and no process any of the IP traffic as the ISP Router in this case will now just be a dummy router and hand everything to the router you connect behind it which will handle all the router duties.

Google explains things way better than I can:
"Bridge mode is a network setting on a router that allows two or more networks to communicate with each other. When enabled, bridge mode turns the router into a switch, which allows the router to stop analyzing and directing network traffic and instead function as a pass-through device.

Bridge mode can increase WiFi range, enhance connectivity and stability, and provide faster speeds. However, bridge mode may disable some router features, such as parental controls and MAC address filtering.

Without bridge mode, setting up two routers can result in conflicts and the common error known as Double NAT. "

And when I mean update, you can only update your own router which is the 2nd router if you were to add one after the ISPs router to do the actual routing assuming it's the ISPs router that was the problem but as that has not been proven yet, more important to see where the traffic is the issue with the same ISP first since if it's a ISP issue, no one other than the ISP can fix it. If it's a router issue and you have access to the router that allows you to change to Bridge Mode, then you can fix it by using your own router connected to their router but if you can't even change as to not having access to change to bridge mode.

Maybe the best solution for having Wi-Fi access in more rooms is buying another router and use bridge mode instead of using a powerline which doesn't work in some rooms. I also tried using Wi-Fi range extenders but the range and especially the speed was very low.

Well, finding is only possible if you are even given access to make those changes on the ISP Router to even see that option. If you don't even have the option, then you cannot bypass it because the ISP Router would be the primary router. If you have the option to change to bridge mode, then the ISP Router basically acts like a Ethernet switch, it no longer does any routing as bridge turns everyhing a router does off and it's your own router siting behind it that controls everything. Well, the non-ISP router can be set to block or unblock anything that wasn't previously blocked like a example is port 25 also known as smtp would be blocked on the ISP side which is the other side of your ONT connection at a higher level which you have no control of as no modern ISP even 10+ years ago would allow running a mail server locally on port 25 so you cannot unblock anything that any device has already blocked before the signal reaches your own router as you only have control over what is not blocked upstream.

Yes, I guess so. If using a VPN, I don't have this issue

Then as far as I can see, it’s your ISP or country that is blocking that site? If this is the case, you don’t really have an option other than using a VPN. You can chop and change as many things as you like but if it’s blocked, it’s blocked.

The router.
In that router, have a look to see if there is a page called “Maintenance” and find Update or Firmware Update.
If there isn’t an auto update or firmware update option/setting, you’ll need to download the latest firmware your ISP uses and upload it to the router yourself. Google will show you how to do it.
As for the ONT, @Almighty1 is right, it should/would have nothing to do with your issues.

WiFi Range Extenders are half duplex and not full duplex so it can only send or receive in one direction at a time, it cannot send and receive in boh directions at the same time like a WiFi router or WiFi Access Point can.

Well, think of this like a highway. If the road ahead is already blocked, you will not be able to unblock it. The bridge mode if you even can change it will only give you access to things that have not already been blocked that is upstream from the ISP router meaning if something is blocked on he other side of the wire of the ONT, it will still be blocked as that means it is blocked at a higher level and not the local level.

Mesh provides full speeds and is basically just a router except each of the meshes or nodes are closer to you. I think all the Wi-Fi extenders if you them connected to the router directly will all have the same speed but it also depends on what WiFi standard you are using as WiFi does come with overhead so you will never get the advertised speeds and only the speeds after the overhead. Best is to use wired ethernet if possible. Well, don't mean anything yet because remember the traceroutes are showing routers that do not respond to icmp/ping requests but based on the ipv6 addresses, you are using Telepac which is part of Portugal Telecom as your ISP. Is your mobile carrier also Portugal Telecom? If it is, then it's weird they would allow 1fichier.com on mobile but not on the wired ISP.

You should send a inquiry to 1fichier using anything that can access their support form and they will open a troubleshooting ticket which is another name for case and see what they tell you. It could be abuse from other users of the ISP you are using that 1fichier is blocking access for anyone who connects from the same ISP which has happened before. There is a very well known ISP in the US named Earthlink and University of California, Berkeley had blocked all traffic from users of earthlink.net at one point because of the heavy amount of spamming since about 25 years ago as a example.

Almighty1 · Aug 13, 2023

As you know, as no one else here uses the same ISP as you do, what we can do is very limited which was why it's better to ask people who are using the same ISP in as local level as possible like someone who lives on the same block, same street to confirm the problem exists. If it doesn't, you work up the chain until someone confirms it does and if no one else even to the top has the problem, then it's a isolated case with your connection only. You should see what 1fichier support tells you first since if they already know it's an issue and they tell you the reason, then only the reason can be fixed. If it's at your ISP level, and you are using a big company, the chances of them even looking into it is slim, let alone fix it and that's only if they consider it a problem to open a case to investigate and actually fix. If they won't fix it, you really are limited. If you want to use the same ISP, then you need to use a VPN. Otherwise, you need to find a ISP that you know works and change to it. It is one thing to need to use a ISP's modem or ONT but no one likes to be forced to use a ISP provided router when basically you are restricted to what they allow and not allow as they would be in full control inside your house on what you can do and cannot do at that point.

Try watching this video as it tells you how to change the ISP Router's into bridge mode but note that this is from one ISP in Australia and other ISPs may have that function restricted from access as the ISP decides on what functions to give you access to and what functions to not give you access to:

Then I could only suggest, as @Almighty1 has mentioned above, your ISP has possibly taken total control of your freedoms over the internet. If a VPN works, and 1fichier is this important to you… it’s really simple math. Use a VPN. You could always buy a new router that doesn’t have you ISP’s firmware. But that’s a whole new discussion that involves adding your ISP’s settings to it. That’s probably a discussion for a different forum.

That won't work because from the looks of the Technicolor router in question, unlike ethernet in for the WAN side of the router and ethernet/wifi out on regular routers where it is already IP when it comes in, the technicolor seems to be ADSL/VDSL, Fiber protocol for the input on the router side so you can't replace it and only thing if it's even possible as seen in the video in post #77 above is set it to bridge mode so it turns that router into a bridge which basically converts the WAN signal and have it processed by a second user provided router, that's provided that the user has access to that setting. If not, then it's VPN if using the same ISP or a new ISP.

What Is Cloudflare WARP? Should You Use It?

Worried about lags when connecting to a VPN? Or about how much securing your connection costs? WARP is a great option for you.

I don't have this issue with WARP but it took some time until I could access any site since it was always failing until stabilizing.

Well, think of this like a highway. If the road ahead is already blocked, you will not be able to unblock it. The bridge mode if you even can change it will only give you access to things that have not already been blocked that is upstream from the ISP router meaning if something is blocked on he other side of the wire of the ONT, it will still be blocked as that means it is blocked at a higher level and not the local level.

Mesh provides full speeds and is basically just a router except each of the meshes or nodes are closer to you. I think all the Wi-Fi extenders if you them connected to the router directly will all have the same speed but it also depends on what WiFi standard you are using as WiFi does come with overhead so you will never get the advertised speeds and only the speeds after the overhead. Best is to use wired ethernet if possible. Well, don't mean anything yet because remember the traceroutes are showing routers that do not respond to icmp/ping requests but based on the ipv6 addresses, you are using Telepac which is part of Portugal Telecom as your ISP. Is your mobile carrier also Portugal Telecom? If it is, then it's weird they would allow 1fichier.com on mobile but not on the wired ISP.

You should send a inquiry to 1fichier using anything that can access their support form and they will open a troubleshooting ticket which is another name for case and see what they tell you. It could be abuse from other users of the ISP you are using that 1fichier is blocking access for anyone who connects from the same ISP which has happened before. There is a very well known ISP in the US named Earthlink and University of California, Berkeley had blocked all traffic from users of earthlink.net at one point because of the heavy amount of spamming since about 25 years ago as a example.

My ISP is Meo, which is an enterprise from Altice Portugal (former Portugal Telecom). Yes, I can't access it on my PC via Wi-Fi and ethernet and on my phone via Wi-Fi but I can access it on my phone via mobile network. What's weird is that if I refresh the page a lot, it may actually load it. Yes, MEO is one of the major ISPs in Portugal and may even have the most clients.

Then I could only suggest, as @Almighty1 has mentioned above, your ISP has possibly taken total control of your freedoms over the internet. If a VPN works, and 1fichier is this important to you… it’s really simple math. Use a VPN. You could always buy a new router that doesn’t have you ISP’s firmware. But that’s a whole new discussion that involves adding your ISP’s settings to it. That’s probably a discussion for a different forum.

But if using another router wouldn't I still not be able to access 1fichier.com?

That won't work because from the looks of the Technicolor router in question, unlike ethernet in for the WAN side of the router and ethernet/wifi out on regular routers where it is already IP when it comes in, the technicolor seems to be ADSL/VDSL, Fiber protocol for the input on the router side so you can't replace it and only thing if it's even possible as seen in the video in post #77 above is set it to bridge mode so it turns that router into a bridge which basically converts the WAN signal and have it processed by a second user provided router, that's provided that the user has access to that setting. If not, then it's VPN if using the same ISP or a new ISP.

Isn't there a Windows control panel network setting called bridge? Does it have to do with router's bridge mode?
