I'm using the ADSL Aztech 305E modem.
"IMHO" the router mode is where you dial from the modem (web interface).
The bridge mode is where you dial/connect using the winxp dialer or third party dialer..etc. Eg. RasPPPoe.
Here is some photos of router mode / bridge mode. |

if you're using only 1 pc, then just set it to bridge mode so that you login to streamyx whenever you want to go online, or u prefer not to login anytime, can set to router mode so that the modem logins for u... and later on when you decide to have a few more PCs to share the streamyx, can just plug a switch into the modem while it is in router mode so all PCs have internet access..  |
