(Added more info re bridging setup)
''It doesn't seem possible to make it work without two internet
connections being configured, even though 'Internet2' is disconnected.
I removed it's config and restored, and the [[ethernet]] ports didn't want
to come up!''

To put the router into proper bridge mode, telnet in and enter these commands
 
:ppp relay flush
:ppp flush
:eth flush
:atm flush
:atm phonebook flush
:saveall
:atm phonebook add name=BrPPPoE_ph addr=0.38
:atm ifadd intf=BrPPPoE_atm
:atm ifconfig intf=BrPPPoE_atm dest=BrPPPoE_ph encaps=vcmux ulp=mac
:atm ifattach intf=BrPPPoE_atm
:eth bridge ifadd intf=BrPPPoE_br
:eth bridge ifconfig intf=BrPPPoE_br dest=BrPPPoE_atm
:eth bridge ifattach intf=BrPPPoE_br
:service system modify name=DHCP-S state=disabled
:wireless radio state=disabled
:saveall
 
[[IPv6|IPV6]] not tested with the above setup although, in theory, it should work as all the above is, is a clean bridging setup.
 
I have recently migrated from BE and their router had a 'half-bridge' mode where the router would only use the dhcp allocated WAN IP address and route the allocated subnet onwards.
I am investigating this setup on the [[TG582N]]. Main advantage is that you can then still easily access the router.
