Router in Bridge Mode

[Brian]

Szia!  I have Net L fiber Internet.  Is it possible to configure the router into bridge mode so I can use my our router/firewall?

@Zölcsi I can confirm all I needed to do was enable DHCP on the Sagecom router (I disabled it).  I connected the STB directly to the Sagecom router (not through my switch) and the STB works fine.

Thank you @btudos!  I'm in Hungary and happy to buy you a drink anytime!

Sorry, but what is STB?

@btz I agree, PPPoE passthrough is independent of IPTV.  The issue appears to be IGMP support on my switch.  When I return I need to do some more performance testing...

1. I'll do more testing with Unifi Security Gateway (USG).  Possibly connecting my computer directly to the USG and avoid my switch.  I believe the issue is that I need to set MTU on my USG to 1300 and re-do the speed tests.

2. I will confirm performance of USG when PPPoE passthrough is disabled (i.e. using a double NAT configuration).

3. If possible, I will even connect my computer directly to the Sagemcom and configure PPPoE on my computer and test performance.

Thank you again for all the help.  I wont be back until February to test.

Hello!

I am thinking on getting Internet from Telekom in the new house and also interested in PPoE passthrough beacuse of DDNS possibilities on my own Router.
Had you done speed tests with and without PPoE passthrough? What was the "bottleneck" during active passthrough?

Thanks in advance.

Hello

Yes. I did some. I did not find a significant difference between the two methods
