How connect to a Bridgged modem with a Hex ?

Sun Jun 08, 2025 10:21 pm

Hi,

I can pass my ISP modem in a Bridgged mode, to do so I have to enter the MAC of the interface that is connected to the ISP modem.
/interface print
So far no problem, but when I do so, I loss the connect to the `WWW` The ISP do not explain more.. I suppose I have to use a PPPoE client ?

is the Hex are capable of such ?

Thanks.

What ISP do you have? Not any information on their site about running a modem in bridge mode?
In regards to PPPoE:

Thank you @erlinden

no, I didn't find any info... I will write them today, but I have little hope..

My ISP is MoblieViking that actually use the Proximus infrastructure and end user hardware...

Thanks for the link , I'll check that.

Have you tried their help ?

Clearly stated: ppp needed (for bbox3)
you should probably copy your current ppp config before switching

might also be relevant: https://support.mobilevikings.be/hc/en- ... p-using-it

Thank you @Sebastia !

I did a search in their help, but no result returned, but I guess It was a technical problem at the time.. they use a lot of external library to run their website...

So I've checked the two link you found ( again thanks )

So for the configuration of the PPPoE they seem to not give a lot of details... :/
But indeed on the post regarding the fritzboz they say ~"You can request the credentials by contact us"

So i'll try to reach them... (finger cross)
