Even after enabling the bridge mode option in jio router im unable to access internet in my router (Asus AC68U) as a fully functioning router. The only way im using it now is by setting it up as an access point..
Am i doing anything wrong?
Please provide me step by step procedure to enable bridge mode.
 
Yes but i'm missing out on many features i need on the Asus router.
Do you know how to bridge the jio giga modem/router?
 
VPN facility, dual WAN and port forwarding are the main features im missing out from apart from the small features i generally use.

Yes, you are right. I can hardly find any solution to my issue. The Jio representatives are not ready to help in any case.
 
First of all, if i convert my router into wirless router mode then how should i configure the WAN?

Second of all, I will experience double NAT if i have both the routers functioning as router mode. That is why i need to convert the jio router/modem to modem only by birdge mode.
 
@rahul811 I have never used Jio Fibre, but see if there something option named similar to "IP Passthrough". I have noticed that in some devices, I need to select enable both Bridge Mode and IP Passthrough options for it to actually work as intended.
 
@varkey I never thought of that. Unfortunately, i can't find any options similar to that.

The only thing i think of is that Jio will update the firmware once it lanuches the service officially. According to some users, many of the features don't work even after enabling them.
 

On Jio-Fi...
I am also facing the same issue... the IPV6 SLAAC does not work via repeater mode inspite of having DHCPV6 configured with NAT address & DNS.. It only assigns native ipv6 to pcs / mobiles directly connected to jiofi.
 
Hi, @rahul811
There is no support from Jio customer care for Bridge Mode. However, to use DDNS, VPN and other features available in Asus router, you need to have other ISP connection also (Airtel/ other ISP connection with Bridge Mode). Thereafter, enable dual wan in Asus router, set Airtel connection in primary wan and Jio connection in secondary wan. Thereafter select load balance wherein set ratio 1:9. Set route rule to disable and save. This way you can enjoy all features of ASUS router alongwith Jio fiber.
 
Jio ONT can be configured in Bridge mode. For this to happen, you need to request JIO technical person to disable DHCP from their end so that you can set JIO ONT in Bridge mode.( to avoid double NAT environment) My JIO ONT is in Bridge mode and working fine with my Asus router but I am not able to make dial up connection. (PPoE connection). It works in Automatic ip. Because of this, I cannot have DDNS on Asus Router. Hence i can't avail feature like VPN, AiCloud and Download Master.
 
@Amrish Rupani How did you get help from their technician? I am trying to fix couple of my issues since yesterday. The customer care folks are really horrible! They don't know what they are talking about.
 
@coolsam07, Person who install jio ONT are hardware person. There knowledge is limited to regular installation only. You talk to technical person who is at server end. For that ask installation person to give name and contact of person who is at server end. Have word with them and ask them to disable DHCP at server end, as you want ONT as modem not router. (because you have your own router wherein you have functionality like VPN, DDNS and your own firewall.) Once DHCP is disabled from server end of your ONT connection, you can configure to Bridge Mode thus you doesn't have Double NAT enviorment.

Click to expand...

which number did you call mate ?
 
Umm...he said call the installation guy and ask for the number of a technical person at the server end
 
@rahul811 and @Amrish Rupani

Were you able to resolve the issue? Another problem with Jio modems is bandwidth limiting. There is an option to restrict bandwidth called Band Width Profiles, e.g., 20 Mbps for a particular port so as to save ourselves from losing data (the problem we are all suffering with high speed plans) but I am unable to find an option to specify that profile to the port.
