Outage - 1AM Central

[kevm]

my 502 is in front of my router from the beginning and I still lost reg during every outage. I had planned to eventually move it behind when things were worked out to take advantage of QOS on my D link router. I did read one interesting thing in this thread. That someone disabled router mode on the 502. Is that worthwhile if your in front of another router? and how is it done?

Thanks

You don't want to go to Bridge mode if the 502 is in the front. You can do that only if you get more than one IP address from your ISP.

I am behind the router and did set the Bridge mode and disabled DHCP. So far, it has not lost registration. Then again, nobody else looks like lost registration during the last few days.
