Bridged modem query

Hi I have the Vodafone router bridged and connected to my router. What would happen if another Device was connected to the Vodafone router through Ethernet cable?

IIRC Vodafone still use PPPoE for all connections so you'd be still limited to one address (with Virgin you can have 3, Eir its probably a lot more). If you configured both devices to dial then most likely scenario would be alternating disconnects.

Yes it uses PPPoE to connect. I though as much but I had 2 engineers here from sky and both wanted to connect a booster to the Vodafone router.
