Home&Life Hub vmg8825b50b in Bridge Mode

IrineuRomanato

Hello,
I have one Home&Life Hub that's my internet provider in Italy gave to me 3 yrs ago, but I change the country and they leave the router. Now I'm trying to use this VMG8825 as my network extension for network and wifi.
I installed the router in my second floor and I´m try to leave in bridge mode, allowing to receive and distribute ips from the main router and allowing internet connection to browser.
Unfortunatelly the router in brigde mode does not assign IP Address and block the internet connection. 
The firmware version is 

• V5.13(ABLZ.1)b10_20200422

Please someone knows how to solve the problem?
Thanks a lot

Hello @ undertale yellow, I also used to have the same issue. But it was solved after I enable bridge mode or select the option that allows the router to function as a bridge. Save the changes and wait for the router to reboot.
After the router has rebooted, check the network settings to ensure that the router is receiving an IP address from the main router or modem. It should be set to receive an IP address dynamically (DHCP). You can try my method.

The same problem used to affect me as well. However, after I turned on bridge mode or chose the setting that lets the router act as a bridge, the issue was resolved. Wait for the router to reset after saving the modifications.

Great rhythm and challenging gameplay! Even though it's simple, Friday Night Funkin' is really addictive and makes me want to play more.

To set up your VMG8825 as a network extension in bridge mode, but it’s not assigning IP addresses or providing internet access. First, double-check the bridge mode setup to ensure you’ve configured the VMG8825 correctly—make sure DHCP is disabled and that it’s set to bridge mode in the settings. Also, verify that the VMG8825 is properly connected to your main router via Ethernet, with the cable going from one of the LAN ports on the main router to the WAN port on the VMG8825. Since your firmware version is a bit dated, check for any available firmware updates, as this can sometimes resolve connectivity issues. If these steps don’t work, consider performing a factory reset on the VMG8825 and reconfiguring it from scratch. Lastly, consulting the user manual might provide specific settings needed for your model. If you continue to have problems after trying these steps, reaching out to your internet service provider or a tech-savvy friend could also be beneficial. Good luck!
