The router will connect to just about anything that works with your Internet service provider (ISP).
The "fiber" word tells us nothing. Every Internet service has optical fibre in it somewhere. The question is how near it gets to you? Front door? Cabinet up the road?
You should ask your unnamed ISP which modems/gateway/ONTs work on its system.
You could also talk to other people who use the system for their advice.
Netgear does not make ONTs and has given up on modems that work on DSL services.
