Too much talking and waffle - Has anyone got a bullet point guide to doing this?

[ryanmalone]

AT&T will also sometimes push out changes that will take the gateway out of passthrough mode. Took me ages to figure out what was wrong. Their network support guys are hilarious. They don’t know anything about networking strangely enough.

Former AT&T Prem Tech here. I had a customer purchase there own BGW320 box which i thought was weird didn’t know customers could do that easiest ticket ever just had to come in install and SFP and activate. This bypass option in this video is awesome im geeked out by it. DIY is correct if you have to call AT&T for anything put the original box back in before calling in. Also if this bypass is installed I’m going to guess that the AT&T APP is not going to work properly either.

At the first, I should have said "thank you so very much" for putting this video together. If you are constantly having troubles with your BGW 320, this may be your ticket to a solid solution.

Americans are super lucky with this type of content. I look for the same thing in my language and country and couldn't find any result. I watch this video to just entertain myself

I’m one of those cool AT&T techs and I approve this message!

[Jacobhopkins]

FINALLY! Not all heroes wear capes. Can't wait to get this going.

AT&T Fiber guy is here right now installing. I have an extensive Eero network here, with hardwires to each WAP. No way I’m giving that up! Well, at least not after he leaves! Haha. BTW, he checked each room for signal from his WiFi router, only reaches 1/2 my house. Thanks for the tips here!

Did this a few months ago. First time in my life I’m finally free of telco junk

Great vid walkthrough, you're a prince among men.
My last house(which was a rental) had AT&T with the GPON + ONT, and I ended up doing a bypass through WPA Supplicant and extracting my cert files from the old gateway(shoutout to DSLReports folks for their work on that method).
Been stuck with Comcast at my new(owned) house, but finally AT&T is coming out to us(after 4 years of living here). I was a little concerned about not being able to do a bypass with the new combined ONT/Gateway. I'm elated someone found an SFP+ bypass. Now I know what to get to prepare for the fiber rollout.
Best wishes from a Texan.

You're my hero. Ive spent over 40 hours on the phone with ATT and 5 damn 320-500s in a year. Cant wait to do this.

I have been doing this bypass for a while. Rock solid.

As a tech at mentioned company, we don’t really mind what you do after we finish up. But if you make changes, just be straight with us about what you did—no games. Some of us do enjoy this kind of stuff, but don’t expect us to have all the answers. If something goes wrong, as long as the fiber feed from the wall is good, you don’t need to call us back out. Just plug it back in the way it was.

Just remember, to close out a job, our systems have to detect our equipment for checks, so we have to reset everything if we come back. After we leave, please give it 30 days before messing with things again or at least calling in to the 1-800 number. Repeats on orders affect that techs metrics. Please be mindful of that.

As an employee for a fiber company (not ATT), you can actually contact your company and ask which PON type you’re actually running whether it’s B/G/X. I wouldn’t see this being worth it if you’re on Bpon but you can get the adjacent adapter based on your PON type

i work for att in north austin and im so happy this came up on my recommended gonna make it more worth it to upgrade to a proper router

[unknowntotherestoftheworld]

Have had the hardware and guides to do this for the past 4-5 months, just havent had the motivation to go through the steps until this video dropped.. thanks

[omegadman]

I'm almost certain I know what neighborhood you live in because I live there too! They installed fiber here about a year ago and I asked them if I could use my own equipment. I'm glad there is a way to do that now and there is an additional benefit to it.

This going into the learning archive. Great video and don't aologize for" rambling", your just being you. Be you do you mano!!!✌🏿

I tried their system for 3 months. I really needed the business class, but they talked me into residential class. There were so many restrictions, that I had them yank it out. Their business class was too expensive. I fell back to 1GBs Spectrum Business Class. Got a discount, and this rocks.
