Why are you relying on the provided modem? It's almost certainly not going to do what you want. Buy your own modem/firewall device. That way you'll be able to make all the DMZ features you want.

I'm a Spectrum customer in Wisconsin, though its not fiber to the premise here. It's over cable using docsis. I am using my own modem (SB8200) and have had no problems for years.

Hope this helps.

Hello to those on the list.

Spectrum (formerly Charter) laid new fiber in my neighborhood and is

offering a pretty enticing deal, especially considering I'm on a vdsl based service now. My current ISP has a router with a "pass-through" DMZ mode, which I use to get protocol 4 to a Ubiquiti router that runs ampr-ripd.

...

Is there anyone on the list that is using a relatively new service from

Spectrum and is able to pass protocol 4 for amprnet?

Thanks everyone for all the replies. I installed new ONT's and swapped out failed ones when my employer made me fill in for a union on strike back in 2016. Most of those used MoCA - so coax not Ethernet. On the new service, yes, I've been hoping the uplink is Ethernet so that I can use my Ubiquiti router directly without needing the router provided by Spectrum. As of 2018 I live in Wisconsin in a neighborhood that until recently only had one option, Frontier DSL. Frontier has been running fiber not far from home, so maybe there will be 2 fiber options in my neighborhood soon.

On the question about why I'm currently relying on the provider's modem/router, I figured I'd be out of DSL eventually, so I didn't want to buy a throw-away DSL box, especially since the one they provided has a pass-through mode that allows my Ubiquiti router to share the public IP address.

If your getting fiber it is most likely GPON and you will have an ONT with an ethernet port. You should be able to use your own equipment connected to the ethernet port.
