RBR20 with CenturyLink fiber

Hi All,

I have been looking into multiple topics on this site and on Reddit and can't seem to find the answer to my problem.

I put my CL modem/router (C40000XG) in transparent bridge mode and entered PPPOE username and password into the internet setup of orbi web interface. Also went to VLAN / Bridge Settings > Enable VLAN / Bridge group > By VLAN tag group > VLAN ID 201 > Priority 0.

C4000XG has a white light and I have no internet. Am I missing something?

    The C40000XG does not connect directly to fiber. What is the point in keeping this device instead of connecting the Orbi router directly to the fiber GPON?  Please explain.
