Fiber optic cable adapter?
I am currently using a Nokia, ISP-provided fiber optic wifi router. The modem only has a port for the fiber optic cable (see image below) and the cable is built into the existing router. I would like to buy a Netgear router, but they only seem to support ethernet cables. Is there a fiber-to-ethernet adapter? If not, is there a Netgear router that includes a fiber optic cable?

Contact the ISP for help and information regarding there services and what is required for use with Fiber ISP services.
Usually ONTs are needed for a Fiber service line.

Unfortunately, our ISP is of no use here—they only support their Nokia routers. Does Netgear offer any ONT routers?

No.
You'd have to use the nokia and connect the netgear to it.
