Brume 2 / GL-MT2500 - Network Placement & Network Mode Help

Thank you both very much for the info.

For sure not Bridge Mode. I’m not sure what’s the difference between the other 2. I used whatever was the default.

I believe the default mode is router; drop in gateway is an option but needs to be enabled. Others recommended DIG, so glad you had success with default router mode. Seeing I only need 1 device to use VPN, I don’t see the need for DIG mode. Thus some of my confusion on determining the correct network mode for my use case too.

Will definitely enable VPN kill switch. (Block Non-VPN Traffic)
Forward DNS to the router.

Then what about VPN Dashboard global policy settings?

I wouldn’t want to use Global Proxy because I only want one device to use the VPN, correct?
So use Policy Mode “b” - based on client device and it’s MAC address?
No need for a VLAN in this simple setup either I think.

Thanks Again
