ONT has no router function so you'd have to ask them for onr. But I think they will only provide ONT to u.

huh ONT is not a wifi, is like a " middle man " connect to the wifi router.
ONT is for optical fibre.
I also confuse what you mean

some places can use ONT and not ONR
depend on plans also
500Mbps is slways ONT one
ONR more expensive for ISP cause the devices got more features like port forwarding

I don't bother on these internet hardware as long can use internet. So you mean ONR is like integrated ? for Fibre connect also wifi , router? all in one ? thus only using one device?

ONR not only accepts input from fibre but it also routes your RF signals. ONT only converts the light signal from the fibre to electrical signals.

If you use ONR you can just connect a RJ45 cable to your PC or laptop. The ONT function is already inside ONR so it's one device. I dun use ONR because I connectivity thru wifi and not rj45.

ONR is a layer 3 device
ONT is a layer 2 device

This is why I don't know , yea I also using Wifi. Last time I do prefer to use wired. No matter what wired connection is at least " slightly faster " than wifi but now a days most people prefer stay on wifi.

I doubt their ONR has wireless function, but you can call and try to ask.
Alternatively, just buy a wireless router and connect to the ONR, then set the ONR to bridge mode. In that case, the ONR is functioning just like a ONT.
