How to activate the Bridge mode for MR6450

I have a Linksys router which is managing my local network including my NAS

Linksys is in DHCP mode and assign my local address to the devices.

I'd like to setup my MR6450 (which has no advanced static IP attribution) in bridge mode.

If i activate the "Passtrhough IP" mode and let the DHCP activated on my MR6450, i have 2 network (with 2 external IP : MR6450-IP and Linksys-IP)

on the web, i'm viewed with my Linksys-IP (when checked with mon-ip.com) but i can't acceed to my NAS (nor by IP or quickconnect feature).

when i try with MR6450-IP .. i can. but this is not the IP transfered to my domain provider (OVH) via DDNS

If i unactivate the MR6450 DHCP, i have no more Internet access, and the routeur is not reachable anymore

does someone can help me ?

thanks in advance

On MR6450, Bridge mode is called IP Passthrough.

You can enabled it by tapping Settings -> Mobile -> IP Passthrough.

Thanks

Hi John,
Thanks for the answering.
Yes, that's what I did, but it seems I have another issue that prevent my external connexion to connect. Looks lIke the mr6450 doesn't forward the request to my router.
Something is blocking it.
I thought I didn't passed to bridge and it was the origin... But it seems not
Thanks again
Marc
