I don't have the right model, the cable appears to be SC-UPC, but it seems my ISP router lists GPON and doesn't match what I'm seeing. I checked Hathway's site for recommendations but found nothing relevant. I only have a ZTE F660 from the ISP, which isn't listed online.
Call your isp and see what they suggest. Many providers do encryption or similar so you can't use your own modem at all. Id just use your current modem/ont in bridge mode and connect your router to the lan ports on it. But if you really want, you want a gpon ont/transciver. Here is a example https://www.fs.com/products/64169.html . But really you gotta know what exactly your isp is going here. Then you can put that sfp module int a rotuer like this guy https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1...ap=y&smp=y
Thanks for your message. I attempted to reach them earlier, but they advised purchasing a new router. They mentioned that bridge mode isn't available since you don’t have a desktop PC and your laptop lacks a LAN port. Would it be fine to buy another router and enable wired AP mode? Could this affect latency? Their coverage drops from about 99% near the router to around 40% in another room, and their ISP claims better routers are only for higher-speed plans.
You won't discover any consumer-grade solutions that support fiber internet. Occasionally you're fortunate enough for your ISP to employ a dedicated optical converter, allowing you to use any router. Other times you face challenges with a subpar combo unit, requiring you to devise a workaround. Typically, the best approach involves switching to bridge mode, converting the device into an optical converter, and then connecting a standard router to it. In certain scenarios, you might encounter a "pass through" function that performs a comparable task.
