Is there a way to Bridge a single LAN interface/port to the outside network (WAN)? I know you can do this with a Nighthawk by Netgear by going to Bridge groups, and clicking on which port you want bridged, but I am clueless as to how this is done on the WWDRT firmware. Thanks!
I have a similar setup for an internal router which is not connected to the internet, if this is for an internet connected router be aware you do not have a firewall on this bridged LAN port.
This is from my notes to bridge port 4 with the WAN:
Code:
nvram set vlan1ports="1 2 3 5*"
nvram set vlan2ports="0 4 5u"
nvram set port4vlans="2"
I am by no means a VLAN expert and your port numbering can be different although this is for a Netgear R6400v2 which is a somewhat similar router
