I am currently using my own router with 1Gb fibre, but I'd like to upgrade to 2Gb HyperFibre at some point soon.

My router has a 2.5Gb WAN interface but if I recall correctly; the original Chorus HyperFibre capable ONTs couldn't negotiate at 2.5Gb, but there is a newer model being rolled out at some point soon which does.

Is that correct? If not, what's the real story?

I have the original HF ONT and it negotiates 1,2.5,5,10G just fine

Ok, good to know.

Are you on the Chorus network (I should add this into my original post).

The issue with 2.5gbps was the Huawei TFF Hyperfibre ONT, not the Chorus ONTs.
Chorus hyperfibre ONT 10G port is 1/2.5/5/10gbps autosensing.

Cheers!
