Then you can access 192.168.2.1 again. For internet access, clone modem's MAC to your LAN adapter, like you did with the router.<br /><br />It's interesting to note that you can't set Internet Time under Management in bridge mode. The option disappears.<br /><br />All in all a great modem though. Maintains sync signal more consistently than others I've tried.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10167978.post-30258467098426354152013-10-28T07:09:31.433+08:002013-10-28T07:09:31.433+08:00Very helpful post.

I had to do one extra step to get the modem to give me internet access: I had to clone the DSL modem's MAC address in the settings of my wifi router. Then the provider is happy as they are seeing the end-point that they recognize as registered.<br /><br />One thing I can't figure out though is how to get the admin page on the DSL modem, now that the modem is essentially an invisible bridge. How would one go about configuring the modem settings after switching to bridged mode?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10167978.post-52074270345929541372013-09-13T09:25:14.429+08:002013-09-13T09:25:14.429+08:00I had this same issue with the D-Link DSL-520B ADS...I had this same issue with the D-Link DSL-520B ADSL2+ Modem and my Linksys WRT54G wireless router.<br /><br />I left the D-Link DSL-520B ADSL2+ modem set up as PPPoE Protocol. I followed the following process. The DSL-520B was first set up to work connected direct to the computer. Once it was working, turn every thing off and then reconnect the wires as described below. Then use the http://192.168.1.1 to access the Linksys WRT54G interface. Change the Internet Configuration type to PPPoE. Complete your ISP User Name and Password. All of your original set up for the wireless password should still be correct. <br /><br />Ref: http://www.ehow.com/how_4886759_connect-wireless-routers-dsl-modems.html<br /><br />Instructions<br />1 Turn off the network devices.<br /><br />Make sure the wireless router, DSL modem, and computer are turned off. Disconnect the power cords from the DSL modem and wireless router.<br /><br />2 Connect the wireless router to the DSL modem.<br /><br />Remove the Ethernet cable that connects the DSL modem to your desktop computer. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into the DSL modem. Plug the other end into the wireless router.<br /><br />Connect the computer to the wireless router.<br /><br />Use the Ethernet cable that came with the wireless router. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into one of the ports on the router. Plug the other end into the computer's Ethernet port.<br /><br />4 Detect the router and install the software.<br /><br />Turn on your devices. Your computer should automatically detect the wireless router. Install the software that came with the router.<br /><br />5 Configure the wireless router.<br /><br />Launch the Internet browser. Look at your wireless router's documentation for the router's address. Type the router's address in the address bar and press Enter. Set up your network's parameters, including password, security, and the unique name for your network.<br /><br />This worked for me...<br />Cheers!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10167978.post-39235216448039699232013-06-07T10:59:12.177+08:002013-06-07T10:59:12.177+08:00Thank you very much, the instruction still work fo...Thank you very much, the instruction still work for the newer version of DSL-520B.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10167978.post-24172788850538151502013-03-31T05:25:15.568+08:002013-03-31T05:25:15.568+08:00This is definitely the post that keep on giving, s...This is definitely the post that keep on giving, so thank you!!! It really helped me set up my DSL-520B.<br /><br />I'm using the 520B with sonic.net's Fusion broadband/phone service and an Apple Airport Extreme Base Station (v7.6.1). Its replacing an old ZTE 831 modem that came with the sonic service when I first ordered it some years ago.<br /><br />I did however have to make one additional tweak on the router. I had to disable DHCP and then everything worked swimmingly.<br /><br />Perhaps I could have modified the Airport Extreme configuration, but this made it work without changing my Airport Extreme config.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10167978.post-55357817151361537962013-02-04T12:33:45.554+08:002013-02-04T12:33:45.554+08:00THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU...
