Bridge Mode - Speedstream 5200 and Linksys WRT54G in Bell Sympatico http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r20210100 en Wed, 20 Aug 2008 19:52:12 EDT Wed, 20 Aug 2008 19:52:12 EDT Re: Bridge Mode - Speedstream 5200 and Linksys WRT54G http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20232316 anon : Hello klarnold

I bought a Linksys router WRT54Gl and had the same problem trying to connect to the modem. This is how I got it fix: I went to www.linksys.com, clicked on support and told them my situation; they sent me to a website where I downloaded a small program in my computer. Once I clicked on the program it set up the connection for me. I connected three computers to my router using the program. Make sure you have an ethernet cable.

Anyway, I hope it helps]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20232316 Thu, 27 Mar 2008 00:14:29 EDT Re: Bridge Mode - Speedstream 5200 and Linksys WRT54G http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20232196 mordin :

I have tried connecting my router with PPPoE and still no connection :( I am getting very frustrated with this modem]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20226181 Tue, 25 Mar 2008 23:15:17 EDT Re: Bridge Mode - Speedstream 5200 and Linksys WRT54G http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20218052 beaver4ever : I think i'll add something to this post since I have the exact same router and i'm in bridged mode with a 5200 modem. Well, you're gonna have enter the router setup page (192.168.1.1) and as your dsl type: it's gonna be PPPOE. You're gonna need your account number and password...and voila it should work.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20218052 Mon, 24 Mar 2008 16:23:07 EDT Bridge Mode - Speedstream 5200 and Linksys WRT54G http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20210100 anon : this is going along with my other post kind of ... I have put my speedstream 5200 modem into bridge mode and according to a bell technician it cannot be taken out (which kinda makes sense because I have had no luck restarting the modem to factory settings)... originally this is what I wanted so now I need to know what do I need to do to my linksys router in order to make it work with a bridged modem ... thanks]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20210100 Sat, 22 Mar 2008 22:55:43 EDT
