Hi, please read the whole message carefully.
In June, I got an Airtel Xstream fiber connection (Postpaid ₹699 Airtel Black plan) with a 'Dasan H660GM-A' ONT running firmware V3.2.2120040. During installation, I had to wait nearly 4 hours for internet because of some issue in fiber line and fortunately the router was not locked. During this time, I followed this unlocking guide and obtained the superuser password (Dz$!A!r7).
Days later, I applied for a static IP. Two technicians visited and next day a static IP was active on WAN1. I think Airtel remotely configured my router because the superuser login (Dz$!A!r7) stopped working afterward. Despite raising multiple service requests, the local technicians couldn’t set up the IP, so I had to cancel the order, but WAN1 remains active. Although my firmware version hasn’t changed, I can't see the superuser password in the logs—Airtel must have done something.
Currently, both WAN0 (PPPoE) and WAN1 (static) are active, but the 'Internet service' option for WAN1 isn't checked, so only the dynamic IP works. Is there a way to use the static IP without the superuser login? I've tried resetting the router with the fiber disconnected, but it didn't help; it stays in Airtel's configuration and the default superuser password doesn't work. Can I manually hard reset it to factory settings? I've read some routers can be unlocked using USB drives with command scripts. Is there a way to use WAN1?
edit: I've disconnected the fiber & pressed the reset button for 30sec, all lights blinked and it was reset but back into airtel configuration and not regular/Dasan mode.
Additionally, I have an unused Jio JCOW414 ONT. Can I unlock it, modify its MAC and S/N to emulate the Dasan router, and use the static IP?

which I don't want to happen.
