My att router just broke and they won’t be able to send a new one to me until wednesday. I have to work from home and need the internet so am wondering if i can purchase one in the mean time that will work with att fiber ont. i’ve read you have to use their equipment but if they can’t get me a router for 4 days i need another solution. Thanks!

It's not an option even with a separate ONT. ATT Fiber made the asshole decision to lock it behind an 802.1x authentication with a cert that only their gateways have. There are ways to extract the cert but they are pretty involved.
