That is a different "bridged mode" than what we've been referring to.
If you can't set the modem to bridged mode, then you need to change it's IP subnet to something other than 192.168.1.0/24. If the modem and your router are both using that subnet, then your router will be confused and it won't be able to route any traffic. _______________________________________________
Well with Mike's urging I Googled some more and tried another Viasat modem setup item "Network Mode" which did shut down the wifi router. Then for the first time I could get some kind of path through my ASUS/Tomato router. That permitted me to see my iPad connected through my router. That is encouraging however this desktop with it's wired connection?
It now occurs to me that my router is still set with different DHCP static addresses and I [probably need to set NM for that address. I have since done a reset on the viasat router which will add a confusion factor, but I notice that the Viasat modem wifi LED has not come back on? I've run out of time now but will get back to this later, there's a glimmer of hope ...
