New to netgear WN3000RP v1H2 - how to install and configure to my mobile
Hi,
I have purchased this device today and I am a home maker - no network knowledge. Please help me to configure and connect with my Fibre Optic Network and use it with my mobile please.

There's a support site with access to manuals, firmware, install guides, etc.
Go to https://www.netgear.com/support/
Type in your model number and from there it'll take you to the above.
Its a great resource to start with.The WN3000RP is a wifi range extender. (Netgear hasn't made the "V1" model in some time.) If that is what you are trying to connect, it needs a router of some sort in front of it.
How does the Fibre Optic Network reach you? A modem?
An Optical Network Terminal (ONT)? (That's a box on the wall that connects you to a fibre network.)
The trouble is that "Fibre Optic Network" can mean many things. ISPs like to boast that they have "fibre" but every network has fibre in it somewhere
