Re: Modem GUI w/ Router - ISO Definitive Answer
This is how 5100b and router should be setup so you can access both.
5100b is doing pppoe off course.
Your router should have a LAN IP of 192.168.1.1 and subnet of 255.255.255.0 and set to DHCP mode.
Then once that is done hit apply/save on the router and reboot your machines if they are being DHCP'd from the router.
I had this setup for 18 months and it worked flawlessly. |

As far as being able to get into the modem's GUI from behind a router, Setup A does not work, and neither does Setup C when I use 255.255.255.0 as the subnet mask for the LAN. Sounds like you've been able to do this successfully. If you have a moment, please post your network config, including how you have your modem setup, and I'll try and duplicate it here. I'm starting to think that I have a bad modem. |

Set the LAN subnet mask to 255.255.255.0, and otherwise use setup A. That ought to work. As RadioDoc  indicated, it is the subnet mask on the LAN side that is causing your problem. The modem use a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0, but that's on the WAN side of your router, so should not be a problem. |
