| actiontec 701 transparent mode and reboots
after I complained to TDS about recent connectivity problems, they sent me a new ActionTec 701 modem. I have my own wireless router, and set the modem to operate in transparent bridge mode. But when I need to recycle the power on the modem (after a night of storms that knock out my DSL connection, for example), the modem starts back up in DHCP mode. Does anyone know whether there's a way to get the modem to reboot with the saved settings instead of the default DHCP settings?
(I'm still steaming from the fact that they never told me that they switched from PPPoE to DHCP at some point.) |

| Until someone with a 701 answers, I have the actiontec 724 modem here (which is a few bucks more per month) and it doesn't have any issue with staying in transparent bridge mode after power cycling it.
