I have a ZTE F660 router provided at no cost by my ISP. Its coverage is very limited, barely penetrating one wall. I’m considering purchasing a new one, but the issue is that my device uses two ports—one for power and another for a SC-UPC cable. I haven’t seen any ISPs using this cable before, and there aren’t any routers available for it. My ISP is Hathway. P.S. I shop on amazon.in.

You have fiber internet via a fiber optic cable. Your ISP might offer a selection of third-party compatible modems or routers on their site. You can also purchase an AP to broaden the reach of your current Wi-Fi network.

Yes, you can link your LAN cable to the ISP router’s LAN port and use the new router’s WAN port. After that, enable access point functionality on the new router.

Purchasing a router with AP support ensures compatibility and functionality.
