“Bridge” means a pure bridged connection with no IP address assigned to the Modem. This connection method
makes the Modem act as a bridge, and just passes packets across the DSL port.
1. Type in a Name in the space provided if you wish or leave the default name.
2. Make sure Bridge appears listed as the Type: of connection protocol used.
3. Do not change the VPI or VCI values unless you are required to do so. If these settings are incorrect, the
ADSL connection will not function. Many users will be able to use the default settings. If you are told to
change these, type in the values given to you by your service provider.
4. Leave the default QoS values if you are unsure or the ISP did not provide this information.
5. Do not change the PCR or SCR values unless you are required to do so. If you are told to change these, type
in the values given to you by your service provider.
6. The Encapsulation values LLC (SNAP) and VC (MUX) are two different methods of encapsulating the
PPP packet. Contact your ISP to make sure which encapsulation is being supported.
7. Click the Apply button when you have entered all the information. The browser window may briefly go
blank. After a few seconds the new connection you just configured will become the active connection for the
Modem.
8. To make your temporarily saved connection permanent, click the Save All button in the System
Commands window on the Tools tab.

the server. This option is commonly used in situations where IP is dynamically assigned and is not known prior
to assignment.
