    The Bright Box 2 is a combined VDSL modem and wireless router supplied to customers of EE (Orange). It is manufactured by Arcadyan and uses a Broadcom bcm63xx SoC
These instructions are based on the latest firmware at the time of writing: v0.04.05.0001-OT (Fri Mar 24 17:29:32 2017)
Put it in bridge mode


This is for if you want to use the Bright Box as a VDSL modem only, and have a separate router act as the PPPoE client (e.g. ubiquiti edgerouter), avoiding double NAT
There is lot of nonsense, not least from people on EE's own forum, about how this cannot be done
If desired, change the Bright Box IP and subnet before doing this because the settings tab becomes inaccessible
Connect your router to port 4 (GigE) on your BB
