6. Select an IP address setting:
• Get dynamically from existing router. The other router on the network assigns an IP
address to this router while it is in AP mode.
• UsefixedIPsettingsonthisdevice(notrecommended). Use this setting if you want to
manually assign a specific IP address to this router while it is in AP mode. Using this option
effectively requires advanced network experience.
Note: To avoid interference with other routers or gateways in your network, we
recommend that you use different WiFi settings on each router. You can also turn off the
WiFi radio on the other router or gateway and use this router only for WiFi client access.

Set up a bridge for a port group or VLAN tag
group
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 instructions for how to set up a bridge for IPTV and Internet service,
follow those instruction.
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 the router
network.
2. Enter the router admin user name and password.
