Hello,
I have one of these modems which is a router by itself. The modem is
configured to work in bridged mode.
Connected to the modem is a router which connects via pppoe via the
modem with my ISP.

The modem has a web interface and and telnet which I would like to
connect to from within the LAN but this doesn't seem to work.
I have currently some trouble with my connection and would like to
use a
tool to monitor the modem's error status but this fails due to the
configuration.
The modem has the static IP 169.254.1.1 and the router has the static
IPs 169.254.1.100 and 192.168.1.1.
I can ping "169.254.1.100" from any LAN machine on 192.168.1.0/24 but
that's it.
You should provide the relevant rulesets (iptables -L -v;
iptables -L -v -t nat). If you can ping the modem from a client
in the LAN, the routing seems to be working, as well as the
NAT (if needed).
You'll probably have to add some rule to the forwarding filter; but
that's impossible to tell without knowing your current setup.
While I don't think that's the problem, just a little warning: the
IPs on the modem segment are from the linklocal net, and are not
meant to be routed - see RFC 3927: "[...]valid for communication
with other devices connected to the same physical (or logical) link".
