XX530v - Allow changing VENDOR ID, SOFTWARE VERSION and other parameters for great OLT compatibility
Currently, the only possible GPON parameters to configure in XX530v v1 are the following:
But this greatly reduces compatibility with different providers, given this product IS AVAILABLE for retail in some countries, and people can buy it to replace ISP ONU/ONT, because it's a great router.
The problem is many internet providers validate more information that what is possible to configure in XX530v (V1), therefore my proposal is:
Allow a broader range of GPON parameters to be configured (AKA "OMCI information")
Like this:

For example, if a certain OLT need a specific value for SOFTWARE VERSION 1 that is different than what XX530v normally sends, this device could work with that OLT if that value could be configured (instead of being HARD CODED).
GPON SN is a example of this: the device has its own GPON SN printed below it, but it's possible to change it in order to allow it to be registered to the OLT.
We only need more parameters to be configured, like
Vendor ID
SOFTWARE VERSION 1
software version 2
OMCC version
Product Class
HW version
OUI
Device Serial Number
MAC
It would improve compatibility a lot, and make it competitive with other ONUs/ONTs.

I thought all modern XPON routers already have these options by default. Seems like I was wrong :(

Thank you all for your feedback. Your voices are heard and brought to the decision-makers. They are actively evaluating the feasibility.
I personally want to confirm with you guys that you're still keeping the XX530v GPON router even though it doesn't work with your internet? Or you guys have already set it up to connect to the internet, but prefer having more customized OMCI settings? Or you have already purchased a GPON router from another brand, but would still like to see more open settings on the TP-Link unit.
Just free discussions, and it's absolutely OK if you don't want to share the current situation.
