mr6500 pro

how do I go about setting up a mr6500 pro in bridge mode? I need this modem to act as a modem only and I have my own VPN router on the backside. I cannot find it in the documentation I have.

 

thanks

  • If you deploy two or more MR6500 (Pro) for example, it's like having multiple Internet connections. There is no bridge relation, it's not a p2p connection or the like. You can run any higher protocols for example over such connections, mimiking bridging over higher protocols like individual VPN links. Since you intend to deploy your own VPN routers you are free to do so within what the transport protocols are supporting. It's still not a modem anymore.
