Fiber connects directly without a modem. Previously, you couldn<|pad|> to purchase one. Your setup determines available choices—some providers offer a media converter/router package. If applicable, switch to bridge mode and use a separate router. Another common method involves a standalone media converter that delivers Coax, Ethernet, or SFP outputs.

Prefer avoiding expenses above $300, considering a possible $450 in USD.

I'm not 100% on the inner workings but there a terminal on the wall that the find line goes into then Ethernet comes out and isp says nothing about bridge mode, just use wan and dynamic ip + vlan setting

Ufb1 refers to a general category for New Zealand devices and modems with standard VLAN settings.

The terminal on the wall is likely the ONT. You should probably use a router, not a modem. Confirm with your ISP if you can connect your own router directly to the ONT.

Current configuration uses ON (chorus 200) with modem/router. Devices can be connected directly if a standard router functioned properly. Since wireless isn't needed, I could simply plug the router into my main device and skip purchasing one. The setup relies on direct connections rather than wireless adapters.

A router serves as a hardware firewall connecting you to the internet. It's wise to always use one. Ubiqtui offers only wired routers, and they don't provide WiFi if you don't need it.
