Could you build this?
No OpenWrt PON (Passive Optical Network) userspace packages require low-level telecommunication expertise, optical SFP transceiver firmware manipulation, and hardware-specific kernel/userspace drivers for fiber-to-the-home ONTs.
What it would actually take: Building this requires writing userspace control daemons in C for OpenWrt to interface with GPON/EPON PHYs (e.g., Lantiq, Realtek, or Broadcom SoCs) via OMCI (Optical Network and Management Interface) protocol stacks. The hard parts are implementing ITU-T G.984/G.988 standards, reverse-engineering proprietary ISP authentication and VLAN tagging mechanisms, and low-level I2C/MDIO transceiver register management.
