Re: Telnet to Modem/Bridge

Hi JF,

Thanks for the reply.

The scenario you just described is applicable when the modem is configured as a router. But if I understand correctly, the scenario will be different if the modem is configured as a bridge since the PC will be the one to initiate the PPPoE connection. After PPPoE has been established, the PC will be assigned a new IP address that might not belong to the subnet of the modem.

My question now is: How can the PC access the telnet interface of the modem? If the PC sends packet to the modem's IP address, will the modem/bridge be able to identify the packet and send response to the PC?

Thanks, Ina
