Is my Orbi RBR50 compatible with fiber optic wifi?

We are switching from cable to Tachus fiber optic for internet.  Is my RBR Orbi compatible?   Specifically if it is can it handle a 1 Gig speed?

Which devices will be installed with Tachus Fiber? What is included and what is additional?

Tachus Fiber Internet plans include:

• A Fiber optic cable, which will bring the fiber connection into your home

• A network device, which will provide wired connectivity to devices throughout your home

You may purchase a WiFi access point from Tachus or use your own.

 

Sounds like you'll be faced with placing the Orbi in AP mode
