already exists in 2.0, assign bridgeX

#2 Updated by Peter Soos about 2 years ago

Yes but nat all LAN interface functionality can be moved to bridge interface yet (e.g. firewall anti-lockout). If you try to add LAN interface to a bridge (after removed IP and dhcp server from LAN and add them to bridge) and reboot, dhcp is working, clients get IP, but WebCfg is unaccessible.

Reassign the bridge0 interface as LAN, and assign your old LAN interface as a separate interface that is a member of the bride. It works that way. Please use the forum for more help.
