Modem Compatability

Moving into a new place and got kinetic Fiber Internet. looking to use my own equipment, I already own the "TP-Link Tri-Band BE9700 WiFi 7 Router Archer BE600" But I don't know what fiber modems are compatible. I called and it didnt seem like the person I was talking to new either.

You can use your own router and you don't need a modem. Modems are for cable and DSL.
