R7800 Bridge mode don't work
Hello,
I bought a R7800 (firmware 1.0.2.20), i link my computer and the router with ethernet, and i try to use the bridge mode on the Wifirst's public router. But when i set the bridge mode the routerlogin.com/192.168.1.1 webpage is not accessible, and the bridge don't work. I try to connect the router on the wifi AP of my android phone but i have the same problem.
If someone can help me it could be cool ! :)
Thanks,
None of our home routers supports such feature.
I'm not sure if 3rd-party firmware will help.

- Yes but when my router switch to bridge mode i cant access to the routerlogin.com page and my PC dont detect the router on the ethernet port.
When the router is set on bridge, it's normal that you will no longer be able to access it through routerlogin.net.
You will need assign a static IP address by selecting "Use Fixed IP Address". Make sure that the IP address that you will assign should be in the same range of the main router.
Ok, because i had access to the page routerlogin.net a little time like 45s in bridge mode, it's why ithink it was possible to go on it.
i try what you propose, but it's don't work. Maybe because i'm not configuring the bridge mode correctly, i'm not a pro :/
I tried with the ip adress shown on my phone when he is connected to the main router for static IP.
