If that's the case then it will work. If you give us the exact model number then we can double check.
Quote It does have a WAN Ethernet port and it does have PPPoE.

I have a Netgear DGND3700 router, which I've found works very well on my ADSL2+, and would like to keep using it once the Plusnet fibre is installed next week.
From reading round, I thought I had a v2 router, which appears to be compatible, and works well, with fibre. However, I've now worked out that I actually have a v1, and have read that after a firmware update, the v1 doesn't work with fibre. I have fw version 1.0.0.17_1.0.17, whichI think is the latest version.
My plan had been to use the BTOR modem, plug in the 3700, and leave the rest of my internal network etc. as before.
Does anybody have experience of using this router with fibre?
Thanks
