Right now I'm a Spectrum customer and Spectrum allows me to use my Arris SB6190 but after going to the ATT store the other day for an unrelated reason, I was given some info on ATT Fiber and for the price that they're offering, it's pretty hard to say "no" to switching. But I'd still like to be able to use my own equipment and continue managing my own network how I like. I brought this up with the customer service rep and she forwarded this list of compatible devices.. So does anyone use their own equipment here for ATT?

I didn't see anything in the AT&T list for fiber. It looked like all cellular.

Be careful that the AT&T 'fiber' is fiber to the home, not fiber to somewhere near your neighborhood.

A few years ago, an AT&T salesman knocked on my door and tried to sell me fiber. There wasn't an inch of fiber in our neighborhood. I suspect it was fiber to the DSLAM and DSL to the home. It topped out at 40 Mbps.

Spectrum was cheaper and faster for the price.
