I'm sure the topic of bring your own modem for hyperfiber on 2 Degrees has probably come up before. I'm wondering if anyone is using the Ubiquiti UniFi (UCG-Fiber) 10G Cloud Gateway Fiber or Ubiquiti UniFi USW-Pro

 

with it though? 

 

The TP Link Modem works fine, I even have an extender for it, but I would really like to move things to a rack and the modem really doesn't work with that. 

 

I don't want to go through the pain of buying this and finding nothing works.

 

Any advice would be very much appreciated.

Makes sense if you're got HF 4 or above and need the router in your rack. Plenty of folk on here, myself included, use unify gateways on 2degrees connections, so that part isn't an issue.

I figured as much. Thanks for responding. I'm presuming they don't stop you using your own device, even though they say no BYOD modem for Hyperfiber. 

 

The supplied TP Link BE22000 (HB810) isn't horrible, it's been stable enough and does have a 10Gbps Lan port, so I've managed to run 10 or 2.5Gbps wired devices. It just awkward as anything to put anywhere!
