Hi!
 

Does Archer GE-800 v. 1.6 support GPON networks via a GPON ONU SFP module in its SFP+ port?

 

If not is firmware update coming with this support?

 

i thought the purpose of SFP+ ports was to plug fibre directly into the router and now it looks like I can only use GPON internet via ONU terminals.

Hello@VadK,

Welcome to our community.

 

If you want to use the SFP+ port on your router as the WAN port and replace the ISP provided ONT/ONU, it is generally necessary to use an SFP+ ONU Stick in conjunction with it.
However, SFP+ ONU Sticks are not widely applicable to all ISPs, the choice of SFP+ ONU Stick largely depends on whether it has been verified and approved by your ISP (Internet Service Provider). It is highly recommended to reach out to your ISP to acquire an officially verified, compatible SFP+ ONU Stick, as we can't guarantee compatibility, availability, or stability.
