Does the clock setting say anything?
Plejd-gateway may have the NTP server hard-coded as "ntp.plejd.cloud" in its settings. To test whether your devices are able to synchronize time via Plejd's NTP server try the following on your Mikrotik: open menu System -> NTP Client, enter the server name, set Enabled and hit Apply. If all went well, you should see status "synchronized".

If the status remains "waiting", communication over port 123/udp may be blocked by your ISP. Although this is unlikely since you claimed the gateway was working with the previous router. Once you finish testing this, please disable the NTP Client.

My ISP says router first so I guess it's right (connected it exactly like it was connected with the old router).
I guess it's the typical setup for home users where you get just 1 IP from the ISP and thus you may connect only one network device to the ISP modem. That could be your new router, old router, Plejd-gateway or laptop. Please try to connect Plejd-gateway directly to the ISP modem and disconnect the router. Disconnect your cell phone from Wi-Fi, launch the Plejd app and check if the Plejd-gateway has got online.

Disconnect the Plejd-gateway and plug the router back in and see what type of IP address your router gets from the ISP: public or private. Open the menu IP / DHCP Client and look for the IP address.

Then identify your public IP by visiting https://ipinfo.io/what-is-my-ip for example. Compare both IP addresses. If they are the same, your router got public IP from the ISP and that is good. If they are different, the router got private IP (most likely in a range between 100.64.0.0 and 100.127.255.255) and that is not bad, but it limits your possibilities in certain sense. Do not share your public IP here.
