Router/Bridge Set
For Netopia DSL Routers, this feature allows you to turn off the routing features and use your device as a
bridge. It is not an option for Ethernet WAN models. Netopia Firmware Version 8.7 fur ther allows you to choose
to have the Router both bridge and route IP traffic. If you select either option, the device will restar t itself, and
reset all the settings to factor y defaults. Any configurations you have made will be erased. Use this feature with
caution. If you decide to change it again, you must reconfigure the device from scratch.
From the Main Menu, select System Configuration.
Select Router/Bridge Set and form the pop-up menu, choose the option you want:
•
Router – retains the full routing features and corresponding menus.
•
Bridge – the device becomes a simple bridge, offering no routing features. Corresponding menus are
hidden.
•
Mixed-bridging-routing – allows concurrent bridging and routing and retains corresponding menus for
routing features.
You will be challenged to confirm your choice.
