Unable to get LB2120 modem working with my RT2600ac router

I am trying to get my LB2120 setup as my fallback internet connection on my Synology RT2600ac router. I have the modem set to bridge mode with the default IP address. For the connection type in my router what should I select. TManual, auto or PPPoE? These are the options for manual.

Hi @hotwater9

 

The router connection type depends on the Internet service that you have. You can set it to Auto so that the system will detect the type of connection.

Two points:

 

Keep the LB2120 in router mode, so it acts as a local DHCP server

 

Your router (RT2600ac router) WAN/Internet port can be configured to one setting - so this is typically a plain TCP/IP DHCP config, no PPPoE or the like ... I think in case your primary ISP does require some encapsulation and authentication, you are out of luck with the LB2120 faiö-over config.
