Indeed. We should just acknowledge that Jio started the revolution and thank them for it and just move on from there. Just use the best Non Jio provider available. If none are there, then use Jio till that point.
Jio knows there are other players in the market and has been quiet(maybe they also see the blessings we shower upon them on this forum) . If they had monopoly over the broadband market , this would have been implemented already I guess. But there will be workaround for that also at some point as the WiFi router is obviously installed at your premises
The range the JioFiber router gives , I doubt if its even viable for them to pull off this public Wifi stunt
I have a feeling the only thing missing from @SWARUPGOLUI 's solution is VLAN tagging. Can someone with a router that has that feature try it by using the VLAN ID from the screenshots he posted?
This VLAN ID was the default in my JCOW4032 hidden settings
- wifi advanced settings & WAN settings are hidden in UI menu on left- BUT USE THE SEARCH OPTION - it will show many hidden results & from there you can change wifi channel settings, WAN DNS etc. - Best search the category names (shown on left)- and it will show everything under it.
I have configured it. I did not do anything in primary jio router. I have 2 secondary router ie. Original Jio router and old Huwaei DSL router from Airtel. I disabled DHCP in both secondary router and configured secondary router IP something like 192.168.29.2 and 192.168.29.3 and then connected LAN cable from primary Jio router LAN port 1 to secondary router LAN port 1. Both of secondary Jio router and Huawei router now broadcasting their SSIDs upon connecting which we have internet working. Only thing is that secondary Jio router is showing Red blinking light but wifi internet is also working fine with same router
