    Getting Fibre broadband installed on Friday. Its a rural connection to one of those black boxes on the poles.

    I have a Ubiquiti Security Gateway (router). Can I run the copper cable from ONT straight into my Ubiquiti? According to the below link I can but I've read elsewhere I need a VDSL modem

    I don't need VOIP or IPTV

    Yes you can. You need to set VLAN 10 on the WAN interface (IPoE) to connect.

    eir's IPTV can work with third party routers. The VoIP service is more problematic but there are a couple of workarounds that can be tried.
