Third party router setup

Hi, I just recently got a third party router, the netgear r6850, and as I was trying to set it up, it wouldn't connect to the internet when I plugged it into the gateway, and the internet light didn't turn on. I tried port bridging with my t3200m, and it still didn't work. Is there some kind of guide or anything that I can do so that it will connect to the internet? Help is appreciated.

  • Only LAN port 1 in the T3200 can be used in bridge mode which you have to enable in the advanced settings of the T3200.
  • If the Internet light doesn't come on then the problem is on the Netgear or the cable to the Netgear. Which port on the R6850 did you connect it to?
