I have such AT&T hardware also, but you and I have very different ideas about what's trivial. I didn't know their box even had certs, or what "ONT" is. Is there like... a written series of steps I could follow?

If you are willing to move to Ubiquiti hardware (recommended, security breach from today notwithstanding) there's a relatively straightforward bypass method where the authentication packets are forwarded from the ONT to the AT&T box but it's otherwise out of the loop, and you have fully native routing with the Ubiquiti USG (a really nice router and ecosystem).

Github project that makes it possible: https://github.com/jaysoffian/eap_proxy https://github.com/jaysoffian/eap_proxy It's definitely not plug and play but I've been using this setup for a year and a half and I get my full 1gb bandwidth throughout my network with lots of hosts.

  AT&T has started using a much newer gateway for new installations.

    Damn, that's a serious bummer. I hope mine doesn't break anytime soon.

If you have the BGW210 gateway there is a written series of steps for root here: https://github.com/Archerious/bgw210-root https://github.com/Archerious/bgw210-root As well as step by step configuration for complete gateway bypass on Mikrotik router hardware here: https://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?t=154954 https://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?t=154954 If you are stuck with the newer XG-PON hardware, it looks like you might be out of luck for now.
