If that is all you did, then changing the protocol of wan to PPPoE and adding the username and password will have the same result. However if we don't know the specs of the IPTV, we cannot help you further.
There is a page with ISP configurations and some of them have examples for IPTV. In some cases igmpproxy is necessary.
You could name here your ISP in case some other OpenWrt user has managed to make it work.
I have already done settings for pppoe and internet is working fine. But i dont know why IPTV is not working.
I can access internet on IPTV but there are not streams for channels. only black screen.
yes i have already done it installing igmpproxy but i dont know how to do settings via command line. Is it possible to do it via accessing 192.168.1.1?
You need add new interfaces on same as physical of pppoe interface, set with any static private ip address (ex: 10.10.10.1/24), assign it to wan zone. And following this guide to configure igmpproxy: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/wan/udp_multicast
I only need to edit this file?
You need to edit /etc/config/igmpproxy
and type everything same as mentioned in the link you posted? for this file?
do i need to add this 0.0.0.0/0 too?
list altnet 0.0.0.0/0
and enable igmpproxy?
igmpproxy is not always needed, sometimes IPTV works fine without it (tested by me). But you need to add the config for IPTV, for instance my ISP allows IPTV to work with 0/102 config and internet works on 0/103 VPI/VCI config over ATM.

My modem is using default firmware it was came it.
All connections are in bridge mode Internet and IPTV in the modem provided by the ISP.
I have installed openwrt on my router.
Hi,
If you need screenshots of the my modem settings, please let me know.
Try edit /etc/config/firewall like this:
config zone
.......................
option name 'wan'
option network 'wan IPTV'
and /etc/config/igmpproxy

I think your WAN port is already receiving IPTV signals from your modem and it should work but I'm not sure why. Try @leeandy's suggestion and see if it works.
Thank you so much it is working now. Again Thank you so much.
I have one more question. Can you help me fine tune the stream?
There is occasional frame drop and pixelated frames.
Is it back end issue from ISP or we can fine tune it in openwrt?
which version of openwrt you are using ? Issue occur when using wifi or wired ?
i am using the latest i think 19.07.2 and i have connected TV device via Ethernet
See iptv docs link above, section " Firewall settings" & " Force IGMP version". Just try one by one step.
On your config above i see interface 'modem', try delete it.
ok Thank you. I read somewhere that you can make packets for TV stream to stay longer instead of dropping them earlier. But i am unable to find it now.
Hi
One more issue can you please help me? Now i can't connect to PPTP windows 10 built in VPN. I tried yesterday after installing openwrt now it is not connecting? Is openwrt firewall blocking it?
Thank you,
