A new firmware has been posted on the update servers that fixes the LB bridge mode issue. To update LB1120, LB1121 or LB2120 to latest Firmware log into the LB web ui and go to Settings àGeneral à Software and Reset once there select check for update and wait then simply follow onscreen instructions to update the Firmware. See below for example of how the LB2120 Firmware Info screen looks like after update. For other device just need to make sure that you are using App Version: NTG9X07C_12.09.05.27

I'm in the same boat. Just set mine up yesterday behind a pfSense firewall. Works fine as a router, no connectivity in bridge mode. Had to reset the modem and set DHCP to hand out just 2 addresses and set my router's IP as a DMZ host.
This is pretty basic functionality one would expect to work right out of the box.

Hello,
I'm on the same boat. Have a LB1120 with a Ting GSM card. For some reason it keeps only wanting to connect to t-mobile APN which is the APN that came up once I started it. I tried to add the 'wholesale' apn and it starts connecting and then disconnects. So I stayed with the t-mobile APN which connects and I have data service but when placed in bridge mode, it keeps assigning a 192.168.5.100 address with the gateway at 192.168.5.2. I tried with a netgear FSV336 router and detects internet service on the WAN interface, but doesn't do any routing to the LAN.
Contacted Ting and they found interesting the private IP assigned. They asked me to reset the modem to defaults to see if it would load the default APN from the SIM as Ting claims the APN for 'wholesale' is supposed to be for phones and such, and they don't have APN for hotspots. Not sure what to do if everything fails.
Just wanted to share my experience and see if there are any new developments. I will certanly try the DMZ option to see if the router likes it.
