After successfully bridging the connections, your computer should now be able to access the internet through the Vonage router's LAN connection. If you don't see the option to bridge the two connections, ensure that you have administrative privileges on your Windows 7 system. Additionally, make sure that both the LAN and Wi-Fi connections are active and working properly before trying to bridge them.
