Help setting Modem/router into bridge mode


Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone at Neowin!

i have just switched to an internet service that costs more and provides less ;) lol

i needed help on setting up my modem/router (Aztec DSL605EU) to work in bridge mode because my router that connects 3 other computer forces me to manually connect to the internet every time (user + pass)

here is a pic of where i think is the place to set it up:

What do i do from here? is this the right page?

Any help appreciated!

Cheers :D

once you set it in bridge mode you will need to put in the pppoe settings within the router to "autoconnect" to the internet.

i have done those steps before with no solution... i get stuck on page 5 since it isn't for only my router...

Edited by the big dill

yes step 5 is for your router (linksys, dlink, netgear, etc) they should all have a pppoe setting. The pc's should not get touched, this is performed only at the router, as this sole router (as in one and only, no other router on the network if you have multiple routers) becomes the device that holds the connection open.

the only reason to set up the aztech dsl router in bridge mode is to be able to port forward in your router behind the modem or to have your router behind the modem do some sort of vpn tunneling.

    • AMD Ryzen 9600X 6-core AM5 CPU is just $185 and you get a free 512GB NVMe SSD too by Sayan Sen If you are on AMD's AM4 socket or older Intel and are looking to upgrade your processor, AMD has the Ryzen 9600X for just $185 (purchase link down below), plus you get a free NVMe SSD as well. The deal comes hot on the heels of Intel also offering the Core i5-14600K for as low as just $200, which includes a 240 mm AIO liquid cooler.
