I’d say let them replace your line with a fiber if it is available. I think you should be able to directly connect your new asus router to the pon box they will gave you after replacing your line with fiber.
Most of the ISP’s in Turkey will tell you that you have to use their modem for fiber but it is actually not true. You can use any router, this guy explains how to do that:

Thank you! I have already applied for Fiber. The new system will be coming to my house within a few days :)
AND Surprise!!!
I found a solution. It’s probably all due to the modem I was using. It was a coincidence but while it wasn’t working at all in bridge connection, I decided to switch the modem back to PPPoE until my Fiber modem and connection will arrive. So I switched it to PPPoE but I forgot to enable the 802.1q on the modem’s WAN configuration page. So I connected to my Router’s admin this time to switch it from PPPoe to Automatic IP but when the admin page showed up I saw that the WAN IP was there! I made a few tests to understand what was causing the issue. So it looks like, when we switch the DSL-AC88U modem to Bridge mode, it doesn’t connect at all as bridge. This function is not working properly if your ISP needs a VLAN tag. But what happened, when I forgot to enable the 802.1q (VLAN tag), my router went connected to the internet and directly got the WAN IP.
So in conclusion, if you want to be able to use DSL-AC88U in bridge mode, you’ll keep it in PPPoE but then disable 802.1q in the modem. And in your router you select your connection type again as PPPoE and set the VLAN ID to 35 as required for my ISP in the IPTV tab. All is working as like I chose the Bridge mode in a properly working modem.
I can’t believe this was the issue.

Great news and glad you are working with your DSL-AC88U acting as a Bridged modem but with VLAN ID (802.1q) turned Off

The settings used for Asus Routers are common for Turk Telekom GPON and Turknet GPON.
You can set up the WAN connection via a DSL device set to bridge mode or an ONT device used for fiber, as shown in the video. The minimum required settings are explained in the video. If a step is shown in the video, it is absolutely necessary, so do not skip any steps.
IPTV setting is required for “Türk Telekom tivibu ev” because IPTV broadcast is transmitted from the local network (VLAN 55) and not over the internet. Other IPTV services (Apple TV, etc.) do not need IPTV settings because they receive the broadcast directly over the internet, they can receive the broadcast over VLAN 35.Liked by:

Thank you very much. I think I’ll just need to do the first part when I get the Fiber from my ISP. I’m not using Tivibu Ev service. I actually do, but only via Apple TV. I just have an online subscription. Therefore I believe I won’t have to set up dual wan. And I assume that the IPV6 activation is also only needed for the Tivibu setup. During my setup I’m sure this video will guide me well.
Thank you very much for your help and time.
