I had also a conversation with CAT and they said they don't have any other GPON ONU than the FiberHome I have. And that is a single band n router. Technology from 2007.

Upgraded speed to 300/300 with CAT. They called and said, everything done, but I still measured my speed to 50/25. Went to their office to pay and complained, my speed still slow. They again said no other modem/router than the fiberhome. Later they sent a technician to my house to check. This guy told us, that the office only changed the papers but not the speed. He picked up a new GPON and a new TPlink router with 4 antennas and AC mode out of his car and installed it. So much to the people in the sales office.

Before I set my fiberhome to bridge mode I wanted to try just hanging my old fritzbox 7390 to the fiberhome. I configuered it to get internet from an other router and it connects to fiberhome and says connected to internet. But I don't get any connections to websites. Do I have to setup something special in the fiberhome GPON?

Thanks for help

As I can't see the edit function for my previous post

Edit:

I found out somehow. After setting up my fritzbox to connect to external router and then share existing internet connection, it worked

in Bridge Mode: Yes

if you use Static IP method + DMZ (to avoid double nat), then no.

I simply converted fiberhome router into bridge mode and connected my asus ac86u router. I also disabled wifi radio on fiberhome router. 

Did you have to put in Username and Passwd from CAT in the PPPoE mode in your ASUS router?

Weird about 3BB and routers. I was just having a discussion with them in BKK about their dual band routers, and routers in general.

 

And their tech guys kept insisting they only had two models available I could get from them for use with my fiber connection -- single band Huawei HG8245 or dual band 8145V5.

 

They never mentioned anything about Fiberhome versions.

@muratremix,

did you find a solution for an own GPON ONT?

I have a similar problem with CAT. I have their fiberhome GPON ONU AN5506-04-FG which even doesn't have AC standard and doesn't let you have fixed ip addresses for your connected devices.

Thank you for your replies.

@richsilver

So I understand he has his ASUS router behind the fiber modem from CAT which is in bridge mode

@richsilver

do you know what model your friend is using?

Thank you richsilver for your kind answer.

I am currently not in my Thai home, so I don't know which modem I have, but the settings, for instance, don't let me fix an IP address to a specific client, nor can I do port forwarding. So when I arrive there beginning of November I shall go to CAT office and ask. Just wondered if I shall buy a sophisticated fiber modem/router here in Europe.

I have a fiber optic connection from CAT Telecom. Does anybody know if you can use your own modem/router?
