Poor Netflix performance on BSNL Bharat Fiber Broadband

@srinivas39326 Did you check with your LCO whether they are using GPON or EPON OLT?

TP-Link XR500V only supports GPON

@Gokul Kannan is correct. TPLink XR500V doesn't support EPON, BSNL Used EPON so for atleast BSNL FTTH this router will not help.

^^ bsnl doesnt uses EPON.. bsnl is basically the first isp which have full GPON based bng noc.. the lcos uses epon as epon olt comes cheap u get 4port one for 34-36k+ tax and gpon 8 port starts from 1.40-1.60lac+ tax for branded ones.. n oems one from 1.20lac

@isp007, thank you isp007 for explaining the details. So this means the BSNL customer like me still can use the GPON router instead EPON, Right?
Why i am asking this is, recently I had spoke to the LCO person and they suggested me to buy EPON router whereas I preferred to buy GPON but deliberately he suggested to buy EPON that is why I thought BSNL doesn't support GPON.

@ananthmsakthi68 If your LCO uses EPON OLT, you can't use a GPON ONU with it and vice versa.

Some ONU supports both GPON and EPON (xPON), this can be used with both GPON and EPON OLT.

@Gokul Kannan Thank you. Long back I have read about the xPON router. Now I am getting back my memory from your input. Thank you again Gokul for sharing your thoughts. , That really adds value my process.

no gpon router will not work.. ur lco is saying u to buy epon ont bcoz he has epon olt in his control room.. buy xpon ont it supports both epon n gpon future ready.. get branded one rather than oem.. genexis ,Huawei,Alphion..

I was having same problem. I changed My MTU to 1000 and it worked.
I changed the MTU at Modem (mine Optilink ONT). Go to WAN Settings and there you will see MTU.
This is the link to determine optimum MTU for you.

This has worked for me. Thank you for the suggestion.

I'm using a wireguard tunnel over IPv6 and right now speeds max out around 100 Meg due to limitation on my router

Hey, can you point to some guide on this? I set up the wireguard and am getting a NATed IPv6. My connection is defaulting to IPv4 but I can access IPv6 websites though. I actually need the server to hand out public IPv6 to my laptop/ phone.
