I'm using the LB1120 to provide WAN access through my pfSense router.
I am looking to pass through the WAN IP via bridge mode to the pfSense router.
It's configured to get a DHCP address but the LB1120 is not providing one.
Here's the associated log for this issue:
Mar 23 21:42:27 dhclient 51291 No DHCPOFFERS received.
Mar 23 21:42:17 dhclient 51291 DHCPDISCOVER on igb3 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 10
Mar 23 21:42:07 dhclient 51291 DHCPDISCOVER on igb3 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 10
Mar 23 21:42:00 dhclient 51291 DHCPDISCOVER on igb3 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 7
Mar 23 21:41:47 dhclient 51291 DHCPDISCOVER on igb3 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 13
Mar 23 21:41:38 dhclient 51291 DHCPDISCOVER on igb3 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 9
Mar 23 21:41:31 dhclient 51291 DHCPDISCOVER on igb3 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 7
Mar 23 21:41:26 dhclient 51291 DHCPDISCOVER on igb3 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 5
Any hints for how to get this to work?
I already tried to set this in the Options modifiers for this interface, based on some other forum posts I found elsewhere, without any luck:
supersede subnet-mask 255.255.255.0
Just an edit: I am able to connect a laptop to the modem if I have it set to provide dhcp leases. I just can't get it to bridge.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I tried a different port on my router and now it works! Probably a bad port.

An update. The Laptop (running PopOS) is able to use the modem also in bridge mode.
