CAX80 with Verizon FIOS?
Greetings. So I recently moved from Spectrum to FIOS. I really trying to figure out a way to use my modem instead of Verizon, particularly not as a gateway. Do forgive me if I'm butchering any ter...
There's not a way.

No, but the conclusion is right. If you have an ONT with an Ethernet
port, then you can't use a CAX80 as a router because it lacks an
Ethernet WAN/Internet port.
