To set up the modem router in bridge mode:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
modem router network.
2. Type http://routerlogin.net or http://192.168.0.1.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the modem router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > Administration > Router Mode.
The Router Mode page displays.
5. Select the No radio button.
With this setting, the modem router works as a bridge and the router behind it obtains a
WAN IP address from the Internet service provider.
6. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved
