Trying to configure DSL-AC68U Modem/Router in Bridge mode

[specul8]

Hi all. Does anyone know how to configure a DSL-AC68U Modem/Router to support Bridge mode? I'm trying to use it purely as a modem, and let another device authenticate to the ISP, perform the network traffic management, NAT & WiFi. It's painless to do on my old D6400, but it just does not seem to be working on the Asus product. It's a pity the Merlin firmware is not applicable to the device. FWIW, I have read the following articles:

Hi @Tech9 The router can be configured for Bridge Mode but when it's configured, I can't get the internet connection to work.
