 1 edit | How to set a bridged 2701HG-B with Linksys WRT160Nv.1 ??? Can someone provide me detailed instruction how to set a bridged modem 2Wire 2701HG-B with a wireless router LINKSYS WRT160Nv.1, please. I need as many details as possible because I never did it before. I'm new in this field. So, I need to know how to open both devices and detailed info how to set all function and values for the 2701 just as a bridged modem and for the WRT160Nv.1 as a device with full control. This is for the AT&T Southeast/Bellsouth DSL Direct Extreme 6.0. Thank you for your help and expertise. Any advise will be greatly appreciate in advance. |

 3 edits | OK Thanks wayjac, but how about Linksys WRT160N setup ? Do I have to reset it and do nothing to it ? |

 1 edit | OK wayjac, so I have to set PPPoE as a protocol on the 160N and nothing more, no other value to insert or change. Am I right. Instead of automatic DHCP I have to set a protocol to PPPoE. Am I correct ? If not instruct me how to do it, please. Thanks in advance. |

|
 | OK wayjac, do you want me to use a factory CD ? I didn't get any detailed setup instruction from Linksys. |
