Configure Connection 1 for Bridge
“Bridge” means a pure bridged connection with no IP address assigned to the Router. This connection method makes the Router act as a bridge, and just passes packets across the DSL port. When the device is used in this manner, it is necessary to install additional connection software on any computer or server used to access the Internet.
