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:

(screenshot of another ONU)
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.

@alb3530 Yeah, TP-Link should ABSOLUTELY support it.
SW1/SW2, HW, FAKE_OK, OMCC, CWMP Class, Equipment ID etc. should ALL be added, if TP-Link really want to compete against others.Just saying "made for ISPs" will make this product worse and seen as an inferior product, even if it's a really good one.
I would suggest TP-Link to look into this at the best interest of the consumers (end-users and ISPs), and be transparent about it.
I myself have been using it, and although it suffices my needs, I still want this product to be as useful as other brands
@IfranAli Absolutely!!
