Re: Siemens Gigaset SE567 Port Forward Problems said by mn wonder :
I tried these directions from another forum, and this procedure (below) is exactly what the frontier help desk told me to do also. This didn't work.
Does anyone have a step by step of exactly how to configure the SE567 from beginning to end?
This is the way to Bridge the SE567 (aka just like the prior 4100/4200).
»Efficient Networks Forum FAQ »How do I change into Bridged Mode on the 4100/4200?
said by mn wonder :
I even changed the LAN input jack on the back of the modem to WAN, and then connected to my Linksys. Still doesn't pass the real IP (bridge) thru to the Linksys. Bridge Mode does not pass IPs back to anything. In Bridge Mode the DHCP server is normally disabled so that no Private LAN IPs are given out at all. You have to create a PPPoE connection so anything behind the Bridge Mode DSL Modem will authenticate with the ISP and obtain the Public WAN IP. Now in some Routers there is an IP Passthrough feature, but that only works when in Router Mode with the DSL Modem/Router making the PPP connection. In Bridge Mode, the DSL Modem becomes invisible to the connection since it no longer has a Public WAN IP address and it is no longer translating Public IP to Private IP via NAT/NAPT.
