RTFM IP Passthru

Post by r00th3rrear »

Looking for RTFM on IP passthru. Example: cell modem gets the IP but passes public IP straight to the second router, so there is not a daisy chain.

Model ZBT-WE826 (16M)
Architecture MediaTek MT7620A ver:2 eco:6
Firmware Version GoldenOrb_2022-09-01 ( OpenWrt 19.07.6 )
Kernel Version 4.14.215

Does your modem get a public range of IPs to then use as routable IPs on your network, or are you just looking to avoid dbl NAT'ing your network?

Usually you just get one IP assigned to your modem, versus an entire x.x.x.x/24 or so.

It's a modem capability. Which modem do you have?

I've never seen IPPT tried on either unit. :(
