Hi,

Total networking noob here and receieved airtel connection just couple of days back so I am still exploring.

Airtel provided Nokia G-2425G GPON router however I would like to use my Mi 3G router running on OpenWRT as my main and use the ISP provided router as just a gateway/bridge mode with wired LAN cable.

I noticed that there is "Connection mode" in Network > WAN page but it is disabled for me, not able to change or modify any fields.

There is an option to Save/Delete WAN connection on same page, but I do not know my PPPoE password.

Also, once I configure this to run on Bridge mode what do I need to do on my main router?

I am totally lost here on how to configure this setting or what tutorial to follow.
 
@yougotmehere Thank you so much for your help, turns out Airtel was blocking my port from bridging. I called up the technician and he made changes in the backend, then port 4 started working.

Now the problem is my Mi router speed is very very low approx 30Mbps, Nokia is giving me 200Mbps.
I assume you are using OpenWRT on your router. Try this: Different speeds on bridge mode | Airtel Xstream Broadband

Edit: For everyone facing decreased speeds, the approach will remain the same as above. The steps might change though
