that you must use bridge mode, select the Bridge Mode check box.
Some de

vices, such as an IPTV, cannot function behind the modem’s Network Address
Translation (NAT) service or firewall. Based on what your ISP requires (some ISPs
support an IPTV virtual interface but do not require bridge mode), you can enable the
bridge between the device and the modem’s IPTV virtual interface so that the device
can connect directly to the ISP’s network.

							If your ISP supports two virtual interfaces (one Internet virtual interface and one IPTV
virtual interface), either you can connect a computer or router to the modem or you
can connect an IPTV device to the modem. Because the modem provides a single
LAN port, you can connect only one type of device and you cannot use both virtual
interfaces simultaneously.

							Specify an IPv6 Internet Connection
The modem supports different types of IPv6 Internet connections for which you can specify the settings
man
ually.
IPv6 Internet Connections and IPv6 Addresses
The  modem
 can support an IPv6 Internet connection through the following connection types:
• 6to4 tunnel
. For more information, see Set Up an IPv6 6to4 Tunnel Internet Connection on page 47.
• P
ass-through. For more information, see Set Up an IPv6 Pass Through Internet Connection on page
49
.
• Fixed
. For more information, see Set Up an IPv6 Fixed Internet Connection on page 49.
• A
uto Config
. For more information, see Use Auto Config for an IPv6 Internet Connection on page 51.
Which connection type you must use depends on your IPv6 ISP. Follow the directions that your IPv6 ISP
gave you.
• If your ISP did not provide details, use the 6to4 tunnel connection type (see Set Up an IPv6 6to4 Tunnel
Internet Connection on page 47).
• If y

our Internet connection does not use pass-through or a fixed IP address but is IPv6, use the Auto
Config connection type, which lets the modem autoconfigure its IPv6 connection (see Use Auto Config
for an IPv6 Internet Connection
 on page 51).
When y
ou enable IPv6 and select any connection type other than IPv6 pass-through, the modem starts the
stateful packet inspection (SPI) firewall function on the DSL interface. The modem creates connection
records and chec

ks every inbound IPv6 packet. If the inbound packet is not destined to the modem itself
and the modem does not e

xpect to receive such a packet, or the packet is not in the connection record, the
modem
 blocks this packet. This function works in two modes: In secured mode, the modem inspects both
TCP and UDP pac
kets. In open mode, the modem inspects UDP packets only.
IPv6 addresses are denoted b

y eight groups of hexadecimal quartets that are separated by colons. You
can reduce any four-digit group of zeros within an IPv6 address to a single zero or omit it. The following
errors invalidate an IPv6 address:
• More than eight groups of hexadecimal quartets
• More than four hexadecimal characters in a quartet
• More than two colons in a row
Set Up an IPv6 6to4 Tunnel Internet Connection
The remote relay router is the device to which your modem creates a 6to4 tunnel. Make sure that the IPv4
Inter

net connection is working before you apply the 6to4 tunnel settings for the IPv6 connection.
To set up an IPv6 Internet connection by using a 6to4 tunnel: 1.
Launch a web browser from a computer that is connected to the network.
2. Enter 
http://www.routerlogin.net. Manage the Internet Settings Manually

5. From the 
Internet Connection Type menu, select 6to4 Tunnel. The 
modem automatically detects the information in the Router’s IPv6 Address on LAN field. This field
sho
ws the IPv6 address that is acquired for the modem’s LAN interface. The number after the slash (/)
is the length of the prefix, which is also indicated b

y the underline (_) under the IPv6 address. If no
address is acquired, the field displays Not Available.
6. Select a Remote 6to4 Relay Router radio button:
•Auto. Your modem uses any remote relay modem that is available on the Internet. This is the default
setting.
• Static IP Ad

dress
. Enter the static IPv4 address of the remote relay modem. Your IPv6 ISP usually
pro
vides this address.
7. Select an IP Address Assignment radio button:
•Use DHCP Server. This method passes more information to LAN devices but some IPv6 systems
might not suppor

t the DHCv6 client function.
• Auto Config. This is the default setting.
This setting specifies ho
 w the modem
 assigns IPv6 addresses to the devices on your home network
(the LAN).
8. (Optional) Select the 
Use This Interface ID check box and specify the interface ID to be used for the
IPv6 address of the 
modem’s LAN interface. Manage the Internet Settings Manually

Set Up an IPv6 Pass Through Internet Connection
In pass-through mode, the modem functions as a Layer 2 Ethernet switch with two ports (LAN and WAN
Ether

net ports) for IPv6 packets. The 
modem does not process any IPv6 header packets.
T
o set up a pass-through IPv6 Internet connection: 1.

interf
ace.
• Primary DNS Server
. The primary DNS server that resolves IPv6 domain name records for the
modem
.
• Secondary DNS Server
. The secondary DNS server that resolves IPv6 domain name records for
the 
modem. If you do not specify the DNS servers, the modem uses the DNS servers that are
configured f

or the IPv4 Internet connection on the Internet Setup page. (See Manually
Set Up an ADSL Internet Connection on page 29 or Manually Set Up a VDSL Internet
Connection on page 38.)
