My att router just broke and they won’t be able to send a new one to me until wednesday. I have to work from home and need the internet so am wondering if i can purchase one in the mean time that will work with att fiber ont. i’ve read you have to use their equipment but if they can’t get me a router for 4 days i need another solution. Thanks!
If you have the ONT white box on the wall you which the router plugs in with an RJ45 cord. Then you can use any router. But if the fiber cable plugs directly into the router and it’s a combo then you need the exact one. Maybe you can take old in and swap them out
It’s not an option even with a separate ONT. ATT Fiber made the asshole decision to lock it behind an 802.1x authentication with a cert that only their gateways have. There are ways to extract the cert but they are pretty involved.
