You must select at least one LAN port or WiFi port. You can select more than one port. 9. Click the Add button. The VLAN/Bridge Settings page displays again. The VLAN tag group is added to the table on that page. 10. Click the Apply button. Your settings are saved. Set Up an IPTV Port to Lease an Intranet Port You can set up the router to create an Internet Protocol television (IPTV) port that can lease an IP address from your IPTV service provider. Use this feature only if you subscribe to an IPTV service and your IPTV service requires an intranet address. Some IPTV ports cannot work behind NAT because the IPTV port requires an IP address within the Internet service provider's network (intranet address). You can set up a bridge connection from the WAN to one of the LAN ports. When IPTV is connected through WiFi, the home router also must support the bridging of the WAN port to the WiFi network name (SSID). The designated LAN port or WiFi network name becomes an IPTV port with direct access to the WAN without going through NAT. To set up an IPTV port to lease an intranet port from your IPTV service provider: 1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the network. 2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net. A login window opens. 3. Enter the router user name and password. The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and password are case-sensitive. The Dashboard displays. 4. Select Settings > Advanced Settings > VLAN/Bridge Settings. Manage the Router's Network 123 Settings User Manual
