Yeah. I ended up getting a couple ms of latency back when i pulled the isp router too.

Mine has been running flawlessly for nearly two years now. ISPs are lazy and only change things when they’re forced to.

what protocol does the ISP use over fibre?

Any way to figure this out?

This is a good place to start. https://pon.wiki/

It very strongly depends on which ISP they have. There’s a few that make it easy. There’s a much larger number that can be hacked by a competent pc person (which I’ve done). There’s also a small amount who have worked to make it impossible / hard to do, and don’t have any public info on the process.

My ISP is att fiber, and all I had to do was change the vlan id on the outgoing side and match the ip settings to make it work. I used the guides from https://pon.wiki/ to do it, and the discord is also incredibly helpful.

Of note, this used to be impossible / very difficult so you’ll still find forum posts saying it can’t be done. However, a couple nerds have changed that over the past two years so make sure your info is up to date before deciding it can’t be done for your specific setup.
