Bridge Mode

Description: 

In this example, the ADSL Router acts as a bridge which bridging the PC IP addresses from LAN to WAN. The 
PC IP address can be a static public address that is pre-assigned by the ISP or a dynamic public address that 
is assigned by the ISP DHCP server, or an IP address received from PPPoE software.

Therefore, it does not require a public IP address. It only has a default private IP address (192.168.1.1) for 
management purpose.

192.168.1.1. 

2.
