Trying to set Reliance Jio Fiber Gateway to Bridge mode got this message any one Have A Idea?

@f3rmion See, when you change the GPON vlan id, then the ont will restart. After that, ont will not fetch the wan details. So enabling bridge mode will be useless because the ont needs to already have wan details to pass it to own router.

Not really, that is exactly what bridge mode does. The ONT does NOT know any WAN details in bridge mode. I think you have it confused.

@Nitin In bridge mode the ONT will NOT get WAN details. This is the same for any ISP or any device, it would purely work as a dumb modem in this case just coverts fiber to ethernet.

So if bridge mode is working as intended, the ONT will not get any WAN info. All it would see is the GPON registration status.

Your previous comment that the ONT needs to know the WAN info to pass to on, is incorrect. The ONT in bridge mode doesn't need to know the WAN info.
 
@Nitin Yes and that is expected too. What is your expectation when you change the WAN VLAN id?

Their internet VLAN is X, and the ONT is configured with that VLAN ID. When in bridge mode, you are basically telling the ONT, all you need to do is take the fiber input, do whatever auth and stuff that is needed with respect to the optical link, and give an ethernet link on a specified port.
The ONT in that config, will not have internet, it is strictly an L1/L2 device.

This is nothing special with Jio, you take any xPON or DSL device. In bridge mode a DSL modem will not have the Internet LED lit up (most DSL devices have this LED), and will have no internet connectivity.
 
@varkey When I used bridge mode in BSNL, I had to start a PPPoE connection in windows (I used to bridge directly to my desktop, no router in between). But since Jio is configured to use Dynamic IP (DHCP) in ISP connection type, I was expecting that windows laptop will fetch WAN details directly and show that Jio’s IP in network properties (that is if Bridge mode worked). But that doesn happen and windows is getting an auto configuration IP, so bridge mode is failing. Is there any way to see the logs or something to see where exactly is it failing. And how is ISP authentication happening in Jio, is it through VLAN ID or they see MAC address of router to identify the customer’s account that is connected? I‘m just curious

That's not wan vlan. When i use that in bridge mode vlan id, i get the message that "it's already configured on GPON".
 
They can call it whatever they want, but it is essentially the internet VLAN. If the WAN (in default mode) is already making use of that VLAN, it makes sense to prohibit bridging that VLAN to a port.

Guide us what to do then.
 
I do not no what Jio is doing
when I am using my router in AP mode i am getting high pings if I use Jio home gateway the pings are fine but the speed is inconsistent on wifi as it is A JCO110 ONT
they are refusing to upgrade my ONT because I am on 699 Bronze plan
if Jio stops bothering my router which is in AP mode I will be fine with out bridge mode
on top of all this blocking twitch streamswhich created more doubts in my mind
I reconnected my ACT connection du to all this

Ya I can do it
but that thing they did with twitch raised questions in my mind like
do I want to support this Company?
hence reconnect ACT

@Anil May i know why do you need bridge mode?. You already have act, which you can use for gaming, hosting and cctv. Afaik, you can enable bridge mode in act right?.
 
@Nitin at the time of posting this thread I was planning to keep JioFiber & disconnect ACT
so asked for bridge mode
now I am just continuing to experiment different ways to get bridge mode working on JioFiber
