    Seems all is fine with the eircom router itself in bridge mode acting as a modem. You should indeed get the DSL light on but not the internet light. I assume you can see the DSL line stats page when connected directly to it? I would guess the problem is with the router... Assume you have it connected from the WAN port to LAN port 1 on the eircom router? (Not that I think it matters which port on the eircom side). Only other thing I have set on the router is the MTU = 1492 under the WAN settings.

    As a matter of interest Bigmoose, with your modem in Bridge mode, if you plug an ethernet cable from your laptop into the modem, what IP address does it assign to you? (what range - is it still 192.168.x.x)?

    Yes, the modem is 192.168.1.x and the router is 192.168.0.x - they're not on the same subnet.

    Yep, same as that. I used 192.168.0.1 for the router - and it assigns out DHCP to my laptop, but just can't get the internet to route through it.

    GGGRRRRR!

    Tried to put a D1000 into bridge mode today, modem showed dsl and the router said it was connected over pppoe, I had another netopia and that worked perfect for me in bridged mode so I left that onsite to get them going.

    Hi Guys,

    Trying to do something similar here to basically link two DSL modems that I have in the house.
    I have a new D1000 modem and that is connected to the DSL line. However, the wireless signal is not strong enough to reach the far end of the house so I want to link the D1000 modem to a Zyxel modem that I have.

    I have two Homeplugs which means that I can basically connect the two modems via ethernet cable. In the Internet (WAN) settings I set up the Zyxel device as a ETH device rather than ADSL but gave it an IP address 192.168.1.253

    I have not changed anything in the setting on the D1000 device - do I need to.

    I am not having any joy getting this to work.

    Some advice would be appreciated.

    Nick
