FTTP who to buy it from - Recommendations please

Another couple questions, when Openreach pull the cable and fit the ONT inside the house do they also connect it up to the modem and test it out or is that upto me to wait for it to go live after he's left?

Can anyone please provide a photo of what I should expect in the way of an ONT box inside the house, I'm hoping it'll be one little box next to a mains socket but a Google search leaves me unsure.

Is the router a self install?

I'll be sent my modem 4 days before the Openreach install date, I was just wondering if an Openreach engineer would then plug it in to test the service, but as all modems are different I guess it'll be left to me to do it, possibly.

Normally Openreach will make sure all is working before leaving provided it is already acttivated by the ISP.

Otherwise they will check they will check the connection to the head end.

The ONT (modem) is about 3"x 3".
