This does not sound to me like a matter of something not being "supported," it sounds more like something's been done to explicitly prevent it.
When we had the two connections "bridged", the indicator by Enet Link on the Diagnostic tab of the Driver's Station was red. That was what caused the tech to say that the mode was not supported. We had other problems at the time so I don't know if the FMS link would have worked with the bridged connections. If we have a practice match to waste (small chance) tomorrow, I'll try bridging again.
