How do I create a Bridge, LTE (4G) to Ethernet?

nicnet

I have been using a Dovado Pro (in bridge mode) with a Huawei E3276 for some years and my internet connection use to drop up to 10 times/day.
Reconnecting took up to 10 min.

I just changed to UTM 9 and now my USB modem is quite stable.
Reconnecting only takes a couple of sec.

Next step is to bridge my Huawei E3276 to an Ethernet interface.
I can't seem to find a guide for this.

Just to clarify; the LTE connection is my only internet connection. This is not to be used as fail-over.

I have 2 unused Ethernet interfaces available thanks to the upgrade the other day.
StarTech.com part# USB31000SW
USB-to-Ethernet Gigabit based on ASIX AX88179.

Anyone?

    You have it plugged in and it's working, set up as an interface, right? I'm confused then why you need to bridge it. It will be the WAN interface, then your clients would connect via an ethernet LAN interface.

    The Dovado was used ONLY to enable the use of an LTE modem.
    I have a Palo Alto taking care of firewall/routing and I also have published services.
    That's why the Dovado was set up in Bridge Mode.

    I replaced the Dovado due to the instability of the LTE modem ...and that's why I need the UTM in Bridge Mode.
    I might remove my PaloAlto in the future but for now, I really need Bridge Mode.
