will temporarily save this connection. To make the change permanent, click on

Commands page, click on Save All.
Bridged Connection
A pure bridged connection does not assign an IP address to the WAN interface.
This connection method makes the router act as a hub that passes packets across
the WAN interface to the LAN interface.
To configure the router as a bridge:
Procedure
1. From the Home page, click on Setup and then click on New Connection. The
default PPPoE connection setup is displayed.
2. At the Type field select Bridge. The Bridge connection setup page is displayed
(see Figure 3-8).
3. Give your Bridge connection a unique name; the name must not have spaces
and cannot begin with numbers.
4. Select a PVC Sharing type of Disable, Enable, or VLAN.
5. Select or enter a VPI and VCI. (Your DSL service provider or your ISP will
supply these.) For VLAN, specify a VLAN ID and priority.
6. Select the encapsulation type (LLC or VC); if you are not sure which to use,
just use the default mode.
