“System Mode” allows users to decide this VPN router should be a bridge device or a router device.
“Router mode” is when the DSL modem performs all the functions that allow you to connect to the Internet
which include: all the technical settings (VCI, encapsulation, etc.) and the VPN router also connects to the ISP
with your username and password. You can basically just connect to your computer.
“Bridge mode”, on the other hand, allows some external device, for example, your computer or a separate
router, to do the ISP connection, etc. In bridge mode, all the VPN router does is remembering your VCI, VPI
and encapsulation settings. The ISP information and IP address assigned is controlled b your separate
router or computer in PPP mode.
