Need help bridge my ISP modem to R2


Squidid

Recommended Posts

I contacted the century link (my ISP) and helped me with some settings to setup the bridging mode but, there's no internet connection so they told me to contact you guys and they gave me info about PPP.

Okay. So I did just that and I still dont have internet but, now I can't access the ISP router. Also in the bridging mode in the ISP router there's tagged 201, untagged, custom and other stuff. It's set to tagged 201.

Hi @Squidid

You should be connecting from a LAN port on the modem to the blue WAN port on the R2.

If you have plugged it in correctly , in the System Information tab you should be able to see a WAN IP listed in the Network Status box.

If the WAN IP is being displayed you should be able to access your modem and the internet.

Lan port from the modem not the ethernet port? Or is that the same? Here are some pictures. 2nd pic is the ISP modem.

Have you tried putting your username and password into the R2 during the setup wizard? It wont connect without that using PPPoE. What make is your Modem router?

What setup wizard? Do you mean to reset to the R2?

The modem router is Centurylink C3000Z.

when you turn the R2 on for the first time a setup routine appears, you need to put your credentials for your ISP into the R2 as in bridge mode I'm not sure the modem will do that. Have you gone though the setup routine as I mentioned, or seen one? Is the R2 connected to a PC?

I will do that now. Hold on.

So I just did the setup and after typing in the credentials and submitting, it's saying "Could not detect an Internet Connection". Yes the R2 is connected to a PC.

I cannot access the modem anymore after the bridging mode.

You would need to connect to the Century link to the PC log in and take it out of bridge mode. Do you know if you are PPPoE or DHCP? It would be useful to copy the settings from the century link. first so you know your username and, password and connection type. Maybe @Zippy can help with this one as he is from the states.

I advise you before you go crazy, to check with your Isp if you use Vlan in addition to Pppoe, some providers and more, if they are fiber, use Vlan to label their traffic on the network.
