Sounds like your router isn't detecting your WAN connection from your modem. What model is your modem and have you put it in bridge mode etc.

it's alcatel fiber modem , doesn't bridge mode options listed in it :(

Why do you need to show it in the first place? IF everything works then leave it alone.

why not :D


everything is working fine ,but my needs are different than yours
 
by the way i disabled the nat mode and nothing happened

So if I read this correctly, the modem is establishing the ppoe connection - so the modem has the external address and it's giving out 192.168.x.x to anything on it's LAN side. So you would need to configure the Asus wan connection type to be the ppoe one (with that same username and password) and then switch the modem to basically be a cable box/media converter.

What other options do you have under that WAN type on your exiting modem?

Thank you
1- the modem dose not have a cable box/media converter option . ( i m gonna try to disable the wan connection and enable it in Asus router)

2- the options under WAN ip mode are DHCP and static ip (by the way the isp ip is dynamic ). I guess it changes every week or so .
