ippassthrough requires mobile provider side changes to work.
if you cant get ip passthrough to work it's because you're dynamically being assigned a non-bridgeable external IP.

I know that IP passthrough might not work with cellular, but I wanted to try to eliminate the Deco M5 mesh as a simple access point, which disables most of its feature. What I expected to happen, was that the Deco M5 would query the cellular provider for its IP-address.
Anyhow, nothing works now with the MR1100 stuck in a boot loop. I can't reconfigure it.
