Bridge Mode (for a single PC)

Selecting the Bridge mode sets the device into 1483 bridging mode in which the device connects LANs and WAN together. It operates as a Data Link Layer device that acts to limit the traffic between two network segments by filtering the data between them based on the hardware address.

To set up the Router for use with an RFC1483 bridged connection, use the following procedure:
