Set Up a Bridge for a Port Group or VLAN Tag Group

This feature is available only in Singapore.

Some devices, such as an IPTV, cannot function behind the router’s Network Address

Translation (NAT) service or firewall. Based on what your Internet service provider (ISP)

requires, for the device to connect to the ISP’s network directly, you can enable the bridge

between the device and the router’s Internet port or add new VLAN tag groups to the bridge.

Note:

If your ISP provides directions on how to set up a bridge for IPTV and

Internet service, follow those directions.

Set Up a Bridge for a Port Group

If the devices that are connected to the router’s Ethernet LAN port or WiFi network include an

IPTV device, your ISP might require you to set up a bridge for a port group for the router’s

Internet interface.

A bridge with a port group prevents packets that are sent between the IPTV device and the

router’s Internet port from being processed through the router’s Network Address Translation

(NAT) service.



To configure a port group and enable the bridge:

1.

Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to your Orbi

network.

2.

Set Up a Bridge for a VLAN Tag Group

If the devices that are connected to the router’s Ethernet LAN ports or WiFi network include

an IPTV device, your ISP might require you to set up a bridge for a VLAN tag group for the

router’s Internet interface.

If you are subscribed to IPTV service, the router might require VLAN tags to distinguish

between the Internet traffic and the IPTV traffic. A bridge with a VLAN tag group prevents

packets that are sent between the IPTV device and the router’s Internet port from being

processed through the router’s Network Address Translation (NAT) service.

You can add VLAN tag groups to a bridge and assign VLAN IDs and priority values to each

VLAN tag group.



To add a VLAN tag group and enable the bridge:

1.

Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to your Orbi

network.

Set Up an IPTV Port to Lease an Intranet Port

You can set up the router to create an Internet Protocol television (IPTV) port that can lease

an IP address from your IPTV service provider. Use this feature only if you subscribe to an

IPTV service and your IPTV service requires an intranet address.

Some IPTV ports cannot work behind Network Address Translation (NAT) because the IPTV

port requires an IP address within the Internet service provider’s network (intranet

address).You can set up a bridge connection from the WAN to one of the LAN ports. When

IPTV is connected through WiFi, the home router also must support the bridging of the WAN
