my bad, get Mikrotik something? edge router X is an option but its too outdated for 2023.

The only two option I have found are Mikrotik Hex Rb750Gr and TP-Link TL-R605 SafeStream Gigabit Multi-WAN VPN Router. Also, are mikrotik routers hard to configure?

Oh okaay, i thought you're powering up adapters like that. Some internet providers do that and have seen ig 2 short circuits so for everyone's safety i mentioned that.
Anyways about router when you're looking for router without WiFi go with router without wifi module itself. Like microtik rb750gr or TP-Link (you can get load balancer)

Edit : microtik isnt that hard to configure but it does provides tools for power users. You can use android app to setup.

Mikrotik, always.
Not hard to configure but you'd require some networking knowledge, internet will help you for that, but its worth the money.

I will most likely just go for Mikrotik Hex Rb750Gr3. Mikrotik Hex Rb750Gr3 is costing around 4300+ and TP-Link TL-R605 costing 2900+. Even though TP-Link costs less, it's better going for a non-chinese brand and it's not made in china

I have tried everything now, and it still doesn't seem to work. I think I am messing up one setting, but I'm not sure. I put my ONT (Optical Network Terminal) in bridge mode and tried connecting a cable into the first port of the Mikrotik router, but it keeps on disconnecting. Putting it in the second port works, which is weird. Then I tried connecting my laptop to the first port to check if the issue is with the port or not, and it worked with my laptop, so I don't know what the issue is.

In the quick setup page, I entered all the necessary settings and applied the configuration. As my ISP provides internet over a VLAN, I created a VLAN and put the PPPoE on the VLAN interface. It worked initially, but now it doesn't work for some reason

Now I some how managed to make it work
