Airtel Static IP config in personal router

Hey folks,

I recently purchased a static ip connection from airtel. I want to use my personal router and do away with any routing of Airtel router.
I have tried the below 2 solutions

Solution 1:

I enabled bridge mode in port 1 of airtel router and connected my router to port 1. Now, I can do a pppoe connection on my personal router just fine, but unfortunately it assigns a Cgnat address(this confirms bridge mode is working) . If I create a static ip connection in my personal router, it does not work

Solution 2:

This is my favorite solution as it completely gets rid of the Airtel router. I have a Tplink Xz000-g3 ONU which replaced my Airtel router, my personal router is connected to this ONU. again I can do a pppoe connection from my personal router( confirms the new onu has no connectivity issues), but static ip still does not work.

Did anybody here with airtel static ip got it working with their personal router?
 
The Static IP is probably bound to the Airtel device's MAC. You need to clone it to your router for the ISP to recognize your account and assign static IP

Tried copying the ISP's Mac to mine. No luck :(
 
Just to confirm: was static IP actually working with ISP's all in one device as router?

Yes. In bridge mode. If you want to change ONU, you need to clone the serial number (MAC cloning not required). There are threads discussing all of the above here and broadbandforum as well.

I have a Airtel connection with static IP and this works just fine for me, No cloning of MAC or anything else was required.
