Has anyone had this problem?

I have my DWR-921 in Transparent Bridge mode but on my Router / Firewall I have the LAN port using DHCP, it gets the IP from the ISP ok but its also using the IP as the Default Gateway.  So as you can guess this wont work!! 

But I have connected to a NIC on a windows PC and it picks up the IP & DG fine???

So why would it be fine on Windows but not fine on Linux??

The Router / Firewall im using is Sophos UTM 9.3, I have an Intel nic with that which I connect the DWR-921 too.

Anyone have any ideas?  I have updated the FW to V2.02 but it didnt make any difference.

Thanks

I recommend that you phone contact your regional D-Link support office and ask for help and information regarding this. We find that phone contact has better immediate results over using email.
Let us know how it goes please.

Support was pretty useless, they told me that this is how the DWR-921 should work in Transparent bridge mode.

The ISP IP is passed through but not the DG.

Anyone know how i can get a router to use DWR-921 in bridge mode if the IP & DG are the same?  on windows the DG is 0.0.0.0.

I cant get my router to use the DWR-921 as a backup Broadband connection without the correct DG.  I could if it was the only WAN connection but as i am using it as backup BB I cant see how i can get it to work.

So disappointed with this product as i cant use it.

DG?

DG? 

Default Gateway

[FurryNutz]

ISP Gateway or router Gateway?

Are you trying to use a different router with the 921? Please give a diagram of how your trying to configure this.

That simplifies the setup, the 2 WANs are both in bridge mode but the DWR-921 isnt passing on the Default Gateway.

Should it be able to connect using PPPOE from my Firewall / router?

Thanks

I presume it should.
