![]() This includes letting DHCP through, giving the public IP directly to the DMZplus host rather than forcing you to double-NAT. It works by leaving all of the existing stuff in place (the 192.168.1.x network, the NAT, etc.), but instead of firewalling unknown incoming connections, it passes any traffic that is not already associated with an existing session straight to the DMZplus host. But if you want to manage your own network behind the router - or in my case, disable the crappy PACE WiFi and use my own access points - their solution is to provide a pseudo-bridge mode called " DMZplus" which gives you something reasonably close, while still allowing the other ports on your router to continue to NAT out to the internet like normal. In a traditional setup where you just use AT&T's router as the gateway for everything, it creates a simple NAT network (on 192.168.1.x) that your wired devices and DVRs share. ![]() In practice, this protection is tedious to set up and easy to breach. They can't just pass all traffic through to another device. MAC address filtering allows you to define a list of devices and only allow those devices on your Wi-Fi network. The problem with a true bridge is that even if you put a gateway behind the PACE, you still need the ability to plug DVRs (or the wireless bridges used by wireless DVRs) into the modem and communicate with AT&T's network to retrieve video, guide data, etc. The first thing to know is that there is no such thing as bridge mode with these routers.
