Set Up a Bridge for a Port Group
If the devices that are connected to the router’s Ethernet LAN port 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. Enter orbilogin.com.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the Orbi admin user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time that you logged in.
The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > VLAN/Bridge Settings.
The VLAN / Bridge Settings page displays.
5. Select the Enable VLAN/Bridge Settings check box.
The page expands.
6. Select the By bridge group radio button.
The section expands.
7. Select the Wired Ports check box that corresponds to the Ethernet port on the router to which the device
is connected.
You must select at least one Wired Ports check box.You can select more than one check box.
8. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
Set Up a Bridge for a VLAN Tag Group
If the devices that are connected to the router’s Ethernet LAN ports 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.
2. Enter orbilogin.com.
