Setting up TPLink Deco S4 1900 with my Xifinity router

Hi, 

I bought 3 used TP-LINK Deco S4 1900 series units to enhance my home network. 

This is what I have done so far, but failing at one point. 

#Accessed Xfinity router Admin page and enabled Bridge Mode.

#Connected one Deco to an Ethernet port (2) of the Router.

#Restarted the Router

#Restarted the Deco

#Tried setting up the Deco. 

# I could create the Master Deco and added SSID .

That moment the Deco goes offline and shows RED . 

I tried resetting the Deco and repeated the process. No Go.

# I connected my laptop to the Xfinity (Bridge Mode ) router. 

I am getting internet. No issues. 

# Swapped the LAN ports.

#Swapped the Network cables / Still no go.

#Google says S4 Deco is compatible with Xfinity. 

What am I missing here ? I see DHCP & Routing  is automatically disabled when we enable the BRIDGE mode.

Any help ?
