In general what should I do next. Like change some settings in ONT for better speed or consistency. I received old ass Nokia ONT G2425G-A router. Is it any good?

 
they scheduled engineer visit for tomorrow. I've listed that devices won't connect to router unless restarted. Guest mode won't work. Sites and app blocking functionality not working.
Any other tips?

Also I went to airtel office today. There was Nokia white router or modem. Idk its model number.
That one had no buttons. does this Nokia ONT G2425G-A have any buttons to turn " WIFI" on/off ( not power button, only wifi) @_Dexter

I don't understand why you want to switch to Nokia ONT. It's slow AF. Your current Sercomm router is pretty good. It also have bridge profiles that Nokia does not (grayed out)

I don't want to switch to Nokia. Also , this black router looks pretty cool.
I want to switch to router that can switch wireless radio on/off (without buying one myself)
Can anyone confirm me which routers ( provided by Airtel) support this switch functionality?

UPDATE: I asked for a replacement . I convinced ISP as it keeps disconnecting and needs to be restarted to function properly.
I got H660GM-A by DASAN. It doesnt have physical wifi on/off button. But when logged in as admin , 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bandwidth can be disabled separately. Much better than Sercomm router
