Tracker, PPTP VPN and E-Mail Notifications will not be operational during use of Bridge Mode.
*Please check http://www.dovado.com/modems to see which modems support Bridge Mode

To alter your router into a bridge, go to the Internet->Internet Connection page within the router
menu, and select either of two Bridge Modes. If you are not planning on using any specific WLAN
client, then use the "Bridging USB with LAN" option in order to avoid any associated issues that
may arise later on. Once the Bridge Mode has been applied, saved and restarted; the router will
indicate "CONNECTION: BRIDGE" when you log into the menu page again.

Scheduler

Dovado Routers contain a scheduler which can be used to control what time Ethernet LAN and
WiFi clients should be able to access the Internet. For example, specific rules can be created to
allow Internet access between Monday to Friday between 08:00 to 17:00, whereas all other times it
will not be possible to access the the Internet. The router will still be connected to the Internet,
however your network devices will be blocked from accessing the Internet. Internet traffic can be
forced On or Off by using the Manual Control button on the page. It is also possible to control the
Internet access via SMS. In order to use SMS, the router needs to be configured via the SMS sub-
menus.

It is also possible to create groups of days (for instance weekdays vs. weekends) in order to
simplify clustering of events.

3.2.4

DNS

Here you can alter the DNS (Domain Name System) settings in the router.

Dynamic DNS Server Settings:
In most cases, the operator which provides the internet service towards your router is handing out a
constantly-shifting (dynamic) IP address. The Dynamic DNS feature allows you to contact your
router via an easily accessible hostname, such as myrouter.mydyndns.com

The Following Dynamic DNS provider is supported

DynDNS.org
Loopia.se
No-IP.com
freedns.afraid.org
Other Dynamic DNS provider

The following information needs to be filled in

Profile Name The name of the Dynamic DNS profile
Service Provider Select which provider you want to use
Username The username to your Dynamic DNS provider
Password The password to your Dynamic DNS provider
Domain Name here you enter the Dynamic DNS name that you have registered. e.g
example.dyndns.org
Interface Here you can select if you should use the direct IP interface (default) or use the
PPTP interface to update the dynamic DNS
