A new firmware has been posted on the update servers that fixes the LB bridge mode issue.

See below for example of how the LB2120 Firmware Info screen looks like after update. For other device just need to make sure that you are using App Version: NTG9X07C_12.09.05.27

Hi Ernest,
Although a /32 (hostroute) mask is valid, I find many if not most modern routers and firewalls do not properly support it. Given that, it is best to avoid using it and saving everyone a lot of grief.
I think part of the problem and that the general rule we use is that the default gateway needs to be on the same subnet as the interface. Using a /32 breaks that logical rule.
I have been using the beta firmware for a while and it has been working fine with both SonicWALL and Cisco firewalls.

Hi Erenst
I did send your suggestions to Darren en Support. Today I was able to upgrade my LB2120 to the new version. Tested it and it works in birdge mode to a DD-WRT (linksys e1000). Thanks all to make it happen...

Also how can it be justified to not fix one regions products when another region gets fix?
