Good News, I manage to bridge the Nokia G-240G-E. We should do the bridge in WAN Section like below:

Once we setup the brigde in WAN, the bridge in LAN is missing.

Now the other port does not able to connect to internet except port 1.
Next step is to try out dual bridge port to AX86U in dual WAN load balance,
but now i don't have any device to see the max speed.

Nice. WC 2.5G can be bridge using the Nokia G240, this is a plus point to consider over SIMBA 2.5G

Good progress. This is similar to last time what Singtel did to the bridging request for 1Gbps customers -- only one port is bridged for internet service (the other three ports can not be used for internet any more but can be connected to Singtel TV box).

Hopefully you can get the next step working -- one port bridged and the other three ports not bridged, but both will work for internet. In that case, you can get RT-AX86U Dual WAN Load Balancing to work.

As for USB to 2.5G adapter, they are pretty cheap, just get one for testing. I usually use Ugreen brand. I also have one from GRiS. Anyway, there are other brands as well -- including more branded ones.

Could you bridge both LAN ports to get 2 gbps with dual wan on the router?
Then it’s possible to max out the 2.5gbps, with 500mbps on another network.

Will test out next week once my 2.5gb nic coming. Will posting the result here.

Can't seem able to get lan 2 to work as bridged. Router show no wan IP. Strange.

I updated the FW and tried cloning the mac address from the ZTEG F620 but was also met with the boot loop problem on the VSOL <url-redacted cause I can't post URL>
Anyway, according to the Anime4000, GPON user can skip mac add cloning because GPON encap inside GEM frame does not MAC Address attached. So im currently still stuck.

Did you saw this thread? seem quite like your case. <url-redacted cause I can't post URL>

@12521252 I'm thinking of switching from MR to WC, and want to consider the setup using VSOL GPON ONU. Wondering if you have successfully setup the ONU or tried changing the FwdOp value as mentioned in the link that Matt_Max shared?

:giggle:Yeah, I manage to make the Dual WAN work by changing the another WAN2 Mac address to other than WAN1. The Nokia must reboot in oder to get both WAN detect public IP(it's take some time for it to get IP).

Here is some speed test using asus router build-in tools(stupid me ... should had know this).

Speed test show good result, but actual real use seem not the case.
My jellyfin seem not so smooth compare to single WAN.
Possible due to load balancing where some data go thru WAN2 instead of WAN1 where my ddns is?:confused:
Can we use the WAN aggregation?

Glad to hear your success in bridging the Nokia G240 ONR. Please help to share the screenshot of the Nokia G240 ONR WAN and LAN configuration now. Thanks.

Unfortunately it is NOT possible to carry out WAN aggression with any of the local consumer ISPs since the provided ONT/ONRs do not support 802.3ad.

As for your particular issue, you may have to fix the device to use a single fixed WAN. You can refer to the Asus FAQ on how to do that.

As you already found out, Dual WAN Load Balancing is not as good as a true 2Gbps/2.5Gbps plan. That is why some people are trying to replace the WC/SingTel ONR with a GPON ONU/Stick with 2.5G LAN port.

Is everything back to normal for you?
The help desk also cog one, as if the cable if break cannot be outside ur hse like that unless ur landed and the fibre goes directly from the mux to u

(Edit) - even if so, also not surely in ur premises wat

Borrowed an optical cable from my neighbour. still red.
Called my engineer friend and he happened to be in the area, he came and said the house no signal. Must push to Whizzcomm and whizzcomm will push Netlink. Expecting the next few days with no wifi, i hope no apocalypse in my house :s13:

No, i don’t even get an IP in the first place after configuring WAN with VLAN ID 10 whether in bridge or ipoe. Changing the FwdOp value made no difference for me. I followed all the steps @Jerry8695 did.

LOID: 123456789
LOID Pw: 123456
PLOAM Pw: FTTH ID in F620 Management and Diagnosis > Status Page. (9 digits)
Telnet into VSOL to change GPON_SN to GPON SN in F620 Management and Diagnosis > Status Page. (ZTEGd4******)
Setup WAN Settings as what Jerry did
I see it as registered certificated and O5 status
I also edited the OMCI information to match the ZTE F620.

MAC cloning should not be required. GPON user can skip mac add cloning because GPON encap inside GEM frame does not MAC Address attached.
Aside, i flashed the Custom Firmware from tripleoxygen which applies the FwdOp command upon boot. No avail. https://www.tripleoxygen.net/wiki/ont/vsol/v2802rh
Not sure how true is this, this is some chinese website talking about IPoE, it seem it need Mac address too.

I think does make some sense, if there is no WAN IP, mean DHCP got something wrong.

I saw this article discussing the use of VSOL V2802RH, might be useful
hxxps://viniciuspaes[.]com/redes/tutorial-substituir-modem-fibra-ftth-modem-vsol-v2802rh/

If you don't get any results, first check if you have a fiber connection. On the modem's home page, you can also check the signal quality. If everything is correct, fill in the remaining OMCI information. The OLT may need to authenticate your equipment before providing the available VLANs. Then it needs to recognize the new modem as if it were the old one. Try filling in the OMCI data based on the provider's modem data:

  • OMCI software version 1: (get version from your old modem)
  • OMCI software version 2: (take version from your old modem, or repeat the version above)
  • OMCC version: 0x80
  • Traffic Management option: (test the options – check speed and compatibility after having an internet connection)
  • CWMP Product Class: (get version from your old modem)
  • HW version: (get version from your old modem, VSOL has 4 character limitation in firmware 1.1.4 and earlier)

Just an update.
FE came down yday afternoon, found no signal.
Whizzcomm said Netlink trust must come down after Netlink could not detect signal remotely.
Appointment supposed to be on Aug 1st but they came down today anyway.
according to the banglas, they "reconnect wires" and blamed it on the mouse.
Service is up and running.

after internet is up, saw the workers via cctv, tried to flirt with my maid by getting close to her while she was seated on the table. Remotely told them they can leave after signed the form. then he kept his distance off her.
