schumaku, I have seen various posts about this - as you quoted - "old Swisscom confusion", but I could not put it together. The too many wavelengths confused me big time. Thank you for the detailed explanation.
So, if I understand correctly, the Siligence module has compatibility issues, and as such I just need another module that works on Tx1310nm/Rx1490nm, and I should be good to go. Do I also understand correctly that the Netgear routers are - and the xr700 in this case is neither - picky about the module we put in? That is, I can use any module that is following the standards and is using the Rx/Tx wavelengths matching with the module from the provider? Also, it does not matter if the router has a 10G port, but I put in a 1G module, does it? I have not found a setting in the DumaOS to scale it down to 1G.
DOGGAVELI, Thank you for your answer as well. I'm a bit confused, however why would I need to use the "DAC mode only" option? I thought DAC means copper only. Of course I'll try that out, I'm just curious why that would be the option to choose?
