[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1794352, member: 131855"] If I am understanding what you want to do correctly you do indeed want to put the DIR-88L into bridge mode. You already have one router on the network that hands out IP addresses for your devices. If you configure the D-Link as a router you will now have two divices handing out IP addresses and that will cause conflicts. Bridge mode can usually be used in either wired or wireless mode although an old device I had used to shut down the wired ports when in brige mode. I'm looking for a good set of directions for putting the 880L innto bridge mode. The directions I have found so far seem to assume that you are going to do that wirelessly.My understanding is you want to make the connection byehternet wire cirrect? [/QUOTE]
