Replacing Converge Skyworth ONT with ODI DFP-34X-2C2 GPON SFP stick on MikroTik RB5009
Just documented my successful swap from the stock Skyworth GN630V ONT to an ODI DFP-34X-2C2 SFP stick directly in the RB5009.
Key points that mattered on my line:
• Only needed the original GPON serial + transparent VLAN mode (VLAN 10 handoff to RouterOS DHCP client)
• No MAC cloning, LOID, PLOAM password, or heavy spoofing required
• Important gotcha: SC/APC (Converge fiber) vs SC/UPC (stick) connector mismatch — solved with a simple APC-to-UPC patch cord
Full write-up with exact commands, RouterOS config, verification steps, and disclaimers:

YMMV depending on your specific PON/OLT provisioning, but this might save someone a few weekends of trial and error.

Routing a Public IPv6 /64 to my home via wireguard and mikrotik
My ISP still doesn’t provide native IPv6, so I built a routed IPv6 setup using a VPS, WireGuard, and MikroTik RouterOS v7.
Home clients receive real globally routable IPv6 addresses via SLAAC over a delegated /64 - no NAT66, no HE tunnelbroker. The guide also covers Vultr quirks, NDP proxying, MTU considerations, and validation/testing.
