When you say it doesn't sync, you are connecting to the modem using PPPoE from a router or PC, aren't you? If not, how are you getting the plusnet user name and password across?

Is my only option to use PPPoE and login from every device, or is there a way of getting PPPoA to work?
Thanks, Lloyd.

Not sure about using PPPoE on Plusnet ADSL may be someone else can clarify.
I use a Zyxel P660 on ADSL and set the LAN IP address the same as the WAN (default gateway address) which seems to force it into bridge mode and PPPoA still works.

Quote from: 00lloyd I'm sorry what do you mean, I thought the LAN IP (192.168.0.1 on my DG834GT) was the default gateway address? Or are you referring to my public IP address. Sorry for being a little technically illiterate!
Thanks, Lloyd.
I'm just wondering why you want to use the DG834GT as a bridge rather than a router?

Unless someone knows how to keep it in router mode and disable all the router features that would conflict with the WRT160N's settings.

As gyre says I reckon you should be using PPPoE on the WRT160 and possibly look for an option for PPPoE pass thru on the DG
There is another thread on here started by gyre talking about his unreliability problems using PPPoE might be worth a read.

The WRT160N will pick up a WAN connection when the DG834GT is in 'modem + router' mode, but then I thought I would have conflicts between the firewalls, DHCP servers, UPnP, port forwarding, etc. Would such a set-up even be secure? Is there a way to configure them to both work together as routers and keep it secure? I guess it would be handy to have two separate wireless broadcasts for N and G devices, but it seems the network would get very complicated...
Maybe I should just ask PN for a 585v7 as the v8 seems to have no bridge support...
Thanks, Lloyd.

The wrt160 should be told your plusnet login name and password.
That's the way I have things set up, except I use a draytek 2920 instead of a wrt160.

http://192.168.0.1/setup.cgi?next_file=mode.htm
would offer to set the router into modem only mode.
The DG Team software might have a similar mode.

It's set to modem mode. The ADSL settings are as follows:
Multiplexing method: LLC-based
VPI: 0
VCI: 38
DSL mode: auto
That's it. No username or password. That will be supplied by the other router that then talks PPPoE to the DG834G
