Hi all. I'm not sure if this is in the right thread so the mods can feel free to move it to the right location.

So as the topic says, I am looking to use route sentry for my two accounts but I have no idea how to set my routher in to bridge mode. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks
 
Haven't done that because I don't have a need to, but I would:

1) Make sure you have the username + password for your ISP. Something like:
havoc@wadsl
xphere


2) Hard reset router to clear everything.

3) Type http://192.168.1.1/ into a browser address bar (Firefox/Internet explorer). Type in default username + password (from the manual).

4) Change default passwords for router.

5) On the Wizard page change VPI: [0-255] from 0 to 8.

6) On 2nd page select bridging. I can't give you the exact name because its not available on my router since I haven't reset it to clear the no-bridging stuff. But its not the "snap-bridging" one.

Rest of the wizard should work without changing any settings.
