No, this is a DSL modem router which uses POTS (RJ-11) to receive its signal from the ISP. There no port for fiber optics on these modem routers.

Well, I've succeeded in connecting this router (through 'bridge') to an optical fiver cable. This was made possible after reading some guides here. In one sentence: I used "WI-FI router" mode and change other relevant settings accordingly.

But, although this router should support 300mb speed connection, I get only 100mb (through lan connection between computer and router). Wi-Fi speed is even lower.

Any Ideas regarding this issue?

Thx in advance.

Boaz

This modem has 4 10/100Mbps RJ45 Ports - so no more that 100mbps you'll get from its LAN ports.

Yes, this router supports fiber connections via bridge  niva follow mode. You may need to adjust the router settings to ensure compatibility with your fiber cable. Check the user manual or reach out to technical support for assistance. Good luck!
