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.

wise ass comment: google is my friend, repeat this and you too will eventually be able to look up stuff.

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.

    • Why would you think it's not enabled all the time? Because they said so?

    • Steam games now detail what accessibility features they offer on store pages by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Valve has pushed a new update for its Steam platform, and it's fully focused on accessibility. The latest change makes it both easier for developers to show what accessibility options they offer within their games and for players to find options they require to enjoy titles. "This update comes after gathering valuable feedback from developers as well as players with disabilities," says Valve in the announcement blog post. "Over 5,000 applications have added details about their accessibility support, with more developers updating their games each day." Here are the options currently offered by Valve: Gameplay: Adjustable Difficulty: Players can adjust gameplay difficulty. Save Anytime: Players can save gameplay using both automatic and manual saves. Saving can be performed at any point in the game. Audio: Custom Volume Controls: Players can adjust the volume of the audio. Different types of audio can be muted independently from each other. Narrated Game Menus: Players can listen to game menus with narrated audio. Stereo Sound: Players can identify how far to the left or right sounds are coming from. Surround Sound: Players can identify how far in any direction sounds are coming from. Visual: Adjustable Text Size: Players can adjust text size. (In-game text, menu text, character dialog text, subtitle text) Subtitle Options: Players have options to customize the display of subtitles for all spoken content and essential audio information. Color Alternatives: Gameplay doesn't rely on colors to communicate important information, or players have an option to adjust colors used for distinguishing information. Camera Comfort: Players have an option to adjust or disable uncomfortable camera movement such as screen shaking, camera bob, or motion blur, or the game doesn't feature these effects. Input: Keyboard Only Option: Players can play the game with just a keyboard and no other additional input mechanisms such as a mouse or controller. Mouse Only Option: Players can play the game with just a mouse and no other additional input mechanisms such as a keyboard or controller. Touch Only Option: Players can play the game with just touch controls and no other additional input mechanisms such as a mouse, keyboard or controller. Playable without Timed Input: Players have an option to adjust gameplay to not require precisely timed button presses ("quick time events") or gameplay does not require such button presses. Text-to-speech: Text chat can be narrated out loud in real time. Speech-to-text communications: Voice chat can be read as a text transcript in real time. These can be found when searching in the filters as well as inside games' store pages in the features section on the right side, as seen in the screenshot above. While developers are not required to mention accessibility options of their games on store pages, Valve says it is highly recommended to make sure players that require it can find relevant games more easily. "We've worked to make it as easy as possible for developers to indicate these features are available by using feedback to standardize these options as much as possible," added the company.
