Bridge Mode

Description:

In this example, the ADSL Router acts as a bridge which bridging the PC IP addresses from LAN to WAN. The
PC IP address can be a static public address that is pre-assigned by the ISP or a dynamic public address that
is assigned by the ISP DHCP server, or an IP address received from PPPoE software.

Therefore, it does not require a public IP address. It only has a default private IP address (192.168.1.1) for
management purpose.

Configuration:

1.

Choose a client PC and set the IP as 192.168.1.x (x is between 2 and 254) and the gateway as
192.168.1.1.

2.

Start your browser and type

192.168.1.1 in the URL box to access ADSL web-based manager.

3.

Go to

Quick Start – Quick Setup. Uncheck Auto Scan Internet Connection (PVC). Key in the VCI and VPI

value, e.g.,

VPI – 8

VCI – 35

Then click the

Next button.

4.

On the

Configure Internet Connection – Connection Type page, select Bridging then click the Next button.

Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Choose

DHCP Server Off and click Next.

7.

Check the network information on the

Summary page. Make sure the contents match the settings

provided by your ISP. Click

IP Address: 10.11.86.81
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.248
Gateway: 10.11.86.1
