5. Configuration Pages
The links under Configuration column are associated to the pages that represent the
configurations of system and interfaces. These pages can be viewed and modified by both
user and admin accounts.
When any settings are changed, please go to the Save Settings page to save the
new setting(s) and reboot the Router. Changes will not take effect until the settings are
saved and the Router is rebooted. If power is lost before saving, all new configurations
since the last save will be lost, even if they were submitted.

Bridge Mode: Bridge Mode is used when there is one PC connected to the LAN-side
Ethernet port. IEEE 802.1D method of transport bridging is used to bridge between the
WAN (ADSL) side and the LAN (Ethernet) side, i.e., to store and forward.
Router Mode: Router Mode is used when there is more than one PC connected to the
LAN-side Ethernet port. This enables the ADSL WAN access to be shared with multiple
nodes on the LAN. Network Address Translation (NAT) is supported so that one
WAN-side IP address can be shared among multiple LAN-side devices. DHCP is used to
serve each LAN-side device and IP address.
