True @a.banerjee, people should move to TP-Link ASAP. BTW, Which tp link model are you using as router and access point?

@!!..PD..!! I have TP-Link router (ER707-M2), switch (SG2210XMP-M2 & TL-SG2210P), access point (EAP-670 & EAP-610) & controller (OC200).
Perfect!
@!!..PD..!! I am in the process of setting it up, will be updating soon
@!!..PD..!! Asus has different mac for ethernet and 2.4ghz, and 5 ghz (under ai mesh, marked as bssid). Hopefully those won't have to be changed? Only changing pppoe mac to ont pppoe WAN mac would be enough (along with other required changes)?
The last 2 characters of my ont pppoe WAN mac are x0 ( while voice profile's last 2 are x1). The backside of my ont mentions last 2 characters of ont mac as DD.
While cloning the ont pppoe WAN mac to asus router pppoe profile, should I include the last 2 characters as x0?

Router:
Mac- pppoe- pppoe wan mac as it is (X0 ending) in Asus.
Don't need to change anything else. Check photo to configure asus.
ONT:
Make sure that bridge profile wan mac and voice profile wan mac are not the same which you are using on Asus.
Once both verified. Turn off ont and router. Connect them with lan cable. Turn them on. Enjoy!!!

Just a warning for those attempting to set Bridge mode.
Always set up the new Bridge WAN profile on the modem, then delete the old profile, only THEN AFTER THAT should you dial the PPPoE from your router.
If you add the bridge wan profile first and dial from router while your old routed WAN profile is also dialed in, it creates a MAC loop and your ONT will get disabled and blacklisted from OLT.
On the other hand, If you delete your routed WAN profile first from modem and then attempt to add a new bridged WAN profile, the MAC address generated for the bridge profile will be the same as the previously deleted routed WAN profile MAC address. And cloning that onto your router will create a MAC loop resulting in a blacklist at OLT.
