what service?
usually they provide a router, if not and they run ethernet cable and you'll have to provide the router I've had good luck with Netgear products.
I have Verizon fiber optic, they don't support the network unless I use their "official" router they provide. I remember I spent like $500 on a Netgear router and got a letter that they were sending me an approved router to use instead. It is better that way since I don't have to manage the network myself. So if the company you are getting fiber with supplies one stick with that, less hassle.
Squeezebox duet works with wireless G, so make sure if what they provide uses wifi and if you are on wifi you can support wireless G, usually that is a "mixed" wifi setting. I run all my music devices with a wire however as it is the best way to avoid buffering and drop outs.
