Looking for GPON ONUs/Sticks that would work with Jio fiber

Hi, I recently took a Jio fiber connection and found out that I can use my own router with their connection. Also their router is crap and locked to the point where even the bridge mode doesn't work properly. Overall, I hate it.

I am looking for a GPON onu or a stick that I could use that would work with jio fiber. Tried using a tplink xz000 g7 that I had lying around with no luck.

Saw some posts here that only some ONUs will work with jio. I am looking forward to buy one that works. Thanks.

I am new to this , I was looking to get a wifi 6e router since I got firestick which supports it and want to make use of it...

I am also with jio fiber and got AC10 tenda currently set as repeater mode in wireless , but speeds are not great

Do you think I can benefit from this? I am newbie and dont know about gpon xpon and in future if i go to ACT can I still use this gpon or xpon?

Will gpon /xpon also work as a router? is there any wifi 6e ones out there?
 
I am in the same situation with airtel fiber. They locked the router can't even change dns. Please help me get the suitable device. I would be sincerely grateful. Should I follow method mentioned in post 3 or post 5?

Airtel fiber has different ONU. Do post model name of ONU supplied by Airtel.
Zyxel PMG5617-R20B is the one.

Anyway, a small update. Emailed airtel with a request of activating bridge mode. After few phone calls they finally did enable it. Initially they said it's been activated on port 4 only. But later I found out that they enabled it on all ports. Now the biggest problem is the speed of torrents. It has drastically reduced. Any recently released torrent would get me around 4.5 MBps always, but after bridge mode it's now around 3 MBps. I'm on the basic 40 mbps connection btw. This is totally unacceptable. So requested them to deactivate bridge now. Bit of a comedy.

And, Anmol Bhard helped over WhatsApp on how to configure my own router after bridge mode was activated. So a thanks to him.
