If it's in bridge mode then it would just pass ethernet packets to the 
router and would not be running DHCP, nor would it need to be accessed via 
TCP.

The westell unit I'm currently using is pretty 'dumb'.  It can be accessed 
via TCP but in general practice there's no point in doing that.  It's a 
set-and-forget kind of box.  I don't know that the D-Link can be configured 
to act in as basic a manner.
