Yes, it is GPON. Now the ONT is integrated inside the router. So the router has an optical input, has two phone connectors, 4 ethernet connectors, and one WiFi access point. It is all standard protocols, but they have to be configured. The optical interface needs some parameters, maybe there is a login and password or client number somewhere. The channel in the GPON setup. The television service needs an VLAN, the VoIp phone service needs another... there are a lot of details in the configuration of those many standard services that have to be configured. There is not, to my knowledge, an ISP provided document listing all that. There might be in the market routers in which I simply click "Telefónica Spain setup" and all is done, but I don't know about them. This did exist with ADSL. -- Cheers, Carlos.
