Greetings to all of you on the forum.
I have recently purchased a BiPAC 8800NL, following a recommendation, to connect to a new AirPort Extreme (6th Gen. Model).
Having read some information from Apple I understand I need to setup the 8800NL in some form of 'bridge mode' / 'modem mode' (apologies from the newbie) to act as a modem only as the AirPort Extreme does not have one built in.
We have a TalkTalk ADSL(2) connection (?) iirc.
I've migrated all of the old router settings to the 8800NL and have this fully operational prior to adding the AirPort Extreme.
Coming to the question how do I now correctly setup the 8800NL to work with the AirPort Extreme?
Regards,
BiPAC 8800NL Bridge Mode/ Modem Mode for AirPort Extreme

Regards,
1. Login to router (8800nl)
2. Click on 'Configuration >> WAN >> WAN Service'
3. Edit the 'ATM >>> PPPOA' profile
4. Change the 'Type' to 'Bridging' and click on 'Apply'
5. On your Airport Extreme, setup the WAN connection as PPPOE and enter your talktalk broadband username and password
That should be it
