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
