I connected my fiber internet directly to my pfsense router via SFP!

I completely bypassed my ISP provided ONT and Wifi Router. I was able to install a SFP+ card in my PfSense box and plug the ISP provided SFP GPON Module "Nokia SFP ONT" with success.

I got 1.5 gig internet! Video Below:

The SFP module provided by Telus is a G-010S-A P/N 3FE46541AADA

A few things to note:
My ISP (Telus) requires you to use the Actiontec wifi router if you have IPTV. I have heard people getting it to work without it, but unreliably. I don't have IPTV, but I think you could create a bridge inside pfsense between one of the RJ45 ethernet jacks and the SFP module resulting in the ability to get a public WAN ip on the Telus actiontec router. I might test this theory at my parents house... if they let me.

If you have fiber phone, my understanding is you need the white Nokia ONT as it has the POTS ports on the back.

I successfully got this to work with a Chelsio T420 dual 10gbe SFP +. Based on my testing, not all cards are compatible.
