They don't document the router specs.
You don't need them for this box. Your Mitrastar router stays where it is and essentially becomes a bridge.
You need to establish PPPoE connection over this bridge and it requires at least user/password. Details on L2 (VLAN numbers etc) are also provider dependent. Even if equipment is capable of working in bridge mode, details how to setup ONT itself and how to use it to actually establish connection are not there. This is exactly the same situation as with most providers here.
Well, between 2006 and 2012, I used two, maybe three ADSL routers/modems (before we switched to fibre) - granted, they were all Zyxel, but they had the option of just enabling rfc1483 bridging. I obviously have little to no idea what may or may not be possible with Carlos' Mitrastar, hence I added "essentially".
Yes, that was then, this is now.
I also replaced Telefónica ADSL router with my own. I'm not doing that on fibre, it is too scary (google confirms) and I want a tranquil old age. >:-)
I don't think you are listening, but I'm getting tired of saying it. Nobody is suggesting you replace your Mitrastar with a router of your own. Me, I initially (March 2012) had some Zyxel fibre modem, it is still sat on a wall in my lab, but it was replaced by a Mikrotik when I changed my uplink provider. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (18.1°C) Member, openSUSE Heroes (2016 - present) We're hiring - https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Heroes
