Good Day,
I was speaking with a couple of Telus fiber installers the other day about this exact dilemma. categorically both expressed the opinion that utilizing the T3200M was a far better solution. Both expressed that the g-240g-a was very difficult to have the bridge settings stick and apply through many reboots of the device.
That being said, even better than bridging the Telus modem and feeding it to a pro/consumer-based router/firewall. I might look at acquiring a device that is capable of utilizing an SFP module interface for the Wan input and connecting the fiber directly to that. No need to bridge the Telus hardware period. Just a thought. Cheers…
