    That seems to be a question for TalkTalk fiber to answer.

    The TalkTalk web site indicates that they offer a wide variety of network plans.  The "fiber" section points out that all of their fiber plans include a "WiFi' unit.

    Mentioning the LB2120 implies that you want to have a network that will "failover" to a LTE connection if the fiber connection fails.  This is complicated enough to design that a TalkTalk support person may have specific suggestions.
