Operation is automatic and transparent.
Wireless clients can connect to the Access Point if they have the correct SSID and
security, but they must obtain an IP address from the DHCP Server on your LAN.
The modem will act like any other ADSL2+ modem. No routing will be performed,
and no client login will be done. If a client login is required, it must be performed by
your Router/Gateway or by software on your PC.

Select the desired device mode for the router:
Router - Both the ADSL2+ Modem and the Router features are
operational. In this mode, this device can provide shared Inter-
net Access to all your LAN users. Also, by default, it acts a
DHCP Server, providing an IP address and related information
to all Wireless and LAN users.
Modem - Only the ADSL2+ Modem component is operational.
All Router features are disabled. This device is "transparent" - it
does not perform any operations or make any changes to the
network traffic passing through it. You need to have a DHCP
Server on your LAN to provide IP addresses to the Wireless
clients using this Access Point.
This mode is also called Bridge Mode.
After changing the mode, this device will restart, which will take a
few seconds. The menu will also change, depending on the mode
