Kostas83 Posted November 3, 2020 Posted November 3, 2020 Hi everyone!! i wonder which is the proper way to connect my XR500 on my ISP modem/router. Via bridge mode or PPPoE passthrough??
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 3, 2020 Administrators Posted November 3, 2020 I would go with bridge mode, either way should work fine.

I want to connect via bridge mode. I spoke with my ISP and they told me that from his modem/router I have to connect from the WAN Ethernet port to the XR500 and I will need to setup the XR500...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 3, 2020 Administrators Posted November 3, 2020 I assume you have PPPoE? In which case you will need to enter that in Settings > Internet Setup once you've bridged it.

I have only internet connection when I use one of the LAN ports. This that i don’t understand is that why he told me to connect my XR500 on the WAN port...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 3, 2020 Administrators Posted November 3, 2020 Yeah it should be LAN of the ISP modem/router to WAN of the XR500. That is how it should be so not surprised it didn't work the other way.
