The first thing I would test is using a PC plugged into the VMG and establish a "dialup" connection using your BT credentials.  This way you can confirm bridge mode is working properly before digging into OPNsense.

The LAN access is odd, it has nothing to do with OPNsense given its straight into the LAN.  Just make sure its IP address is not in the OPNsense DHCP range, or you can set a static lease even if its never used - just to make sure it isn't.

Yeah I think mine synced slightly faster on my modified Home Hubs with OpenWRT than the Zyxel.  More importantly I could run my own scripts actually on them so I could output the stats as json via the web interface.
