I want to use Fibreoptic Internet with my VPN on my current modem. Is this possible as I understand the T-Mobile Modem cannot be put into Bridge Mode?

Hello
If your modem/router has support for VLAN then you can connect it to the ONT, just tag VLAN 300 on the WAN port.
Thank you for this reply, but Im afraid I am a novice at this. Can you please explain what, ‘connect it to the ONT, just tag VLAN 300 on the WAN port.’ specifically means?

Hello
Which modem/router do you have? And the ONT is the mediaconverter between Fiber connection point and router.
The Router is Netgear R6400v2. It has been made specifically with a VPN built in so that you can choose which appliances that are connected to it in your house can use the VPN. I use it every day.
We are about to have T-Mobile Fibreglass and I am now worried as the ISP modem has to be in Bridge Mode so that the router will be the main internet VPN provider (or not).

Quickly searched for the specifications of the router and there is no support for VLAN.
What you could do is connect the Netgear to any LAN port of the T-Mobile router, disable DHCP on the Netgear and appoint a fixed IP address for your Netgear via the interface of the T-Mobile router and activate a DMZ rule so all traffic goes to your Netgear.
Thank you for your work. Once the T-Mobile router arrives, Ill try that and report back.
