10g port quistion

Hi netgear community,
I have fiberglass internet and I don't want to use the standard modem from my isp anymore. I would like to buy a 10gb port adapter, so I can plug the fiber cable directly to the xr700. The question is...will that work normally? Will I get internet from the xr700 alone without the ISP modem? The picture of the 10gb adapter in the attachment.

So you want to use the SFP port correct? Usually you need to have it connected to a modem or router but in theory with the adapter it could work. Give it a try and then let us know what happens.
