So now almost exactly two years have passed since @Bergler asked the question.

At least it’s now said to be coming in Q1 2025, but I won’t believe that until it’s available 🙃

That’s worse than delivery dates for new cars 😂

POGO 1104 haven’t made it yet still have the old glasses …

As the 5690 XGS is still a long time coming, there is now the option of switching to a Fritzbox 4690 and placing a Zyxel Bridge in front of it, for example.

Although you then have two devices, it is equivalent in terms of performance.

I will consider this alternative.

If you want to use your own home network router for a long time, it’s always good if it doesn’t have a built-in modem, because that way you’re not tied to a provider-specific, very specific Internet access technology.

In addition, the modem-less frits can also be cascaded wonderfully behind a provider router, which actually makes the superfluous purchase of an additional technology-dependent bridge superfluous.

I knew you would come up with this, my dear Werner 👍🏻😜😂

but you are also right, the “easiest” would be a 4690 behind the IB.

But you know my opinion on that 😉

I’ve been cascading my own routers behind provider access routers for over 20 years now, and in all that time I simply haven’t encountered a single situation that has prompted me to switch to a pure additional bridge.

However, if I were to encounter this situation, I would simply insert a technically suitable SFP+ slot into my own router to completely replace the provider CPE, which I don’t want to do yet.

Of course, everyone can always decide for themselves what they consider to be the best technical solution.
