D-Link DSl 2750U Half Bridge Mode

You'll find that option when you configure the PPPoE WAN connection.

On my DSL-2500U it is to found under:
Advanced Setup -> WAN
Click Edit on the PPPoE connection
Click Next, Next
Now that option should be shown. See a screenshot of how my page looks: http://www.imagehost.co.za/image-FEED_501F9F23.jpg

Do you perhaps have a Telkom branded DSL-2750U?

Thanks guys.

I've got pppoe passthrough ticked but it doesnt want to make a bridged connection.

Do you have any other routers inbetween the PC that you want to dail a PPPoE connection from and your DSL-2750U?

If not, then I would suggest that you try changing those -1 values in the Connection Type group to 0.
Also make sure that you press Next, Next and end up by pressing the Save button and that you reboot the device.

I can't see anything wrong besides the few things that I mentioned above.

Try this,

Go to Setup > Internet Connection > Add

ATM PVC Configuration:
The VPI will have to be something other than 8 otherwise it complains, so I just picked 0 (the default)
The VCI remains at 35
Service Cat. : UBR without PCR

Leave the IP qos scheduler

Connection Type:
Protocol: Bridging
Encap. Mode: LLC/SNAP-BRIDGING
Enable Multiple Vlan Over One Connection: DISABLED

Then go Next > Apply

I've got pppoe passthrough ticked but it doesnt want to make a bridged connection.

Keep this on!

JasDan:
The VPI has to be 8, otherwise it won't work.

I tried setting it to 8, however when you try click 'Next' it throws and error:

invalid vpi/vci

&

Another PPPoE WAN connction already enabled "PPPoE pass-through" on this VPI/VCI,please disable the new one.

I just left it at what it defaulted to, that being 0. Here's the Internet Connection screen:

I don't have a second account to properly test with, and my uncapped account only allows one connection. So this might not work properly. I did manage to connect using a PPPoE connection on my mac, once I had stopped the modem connecting automatically. It worked for a while until the modem reconnected itself again.

I do have the same modem/router with firmware AF_1.65_R01

AH. Now I see why it won't allow you to use a VPI of 8 !

You cannot have 2 WAN connections on the D-Link ADSL modems with the same VPI/VCI combination, even if one is disabled.

If the PPPoE Relaying option does not work, then having a second WAN connection that is just a bridge interface, just like you have, then it should have the same effect as PPPoE Relaying.

You can test with the Telkom guest account from your PC. The details are:
username=guest@telkomadsl
password=guest
