Double NAT problem on gigabit internet
Hello, New to the whole mesh networking and Orbi. Just got a 2-pack Orbi and conencted with Netblazr ISP. There is no modem because of gigabit internet coming from the cat5e outlet, instead of cable...
It's definitely in router mode. Wouldn't setting it to AP mode stop the firewall and other security measures from working? I've heard that it's never recommended. Or since it's showing double nat, does that mean ISP already has that covered? Tried to contact ISP, but it's Saturday.
I think the only other option would be to have the ISP put their side into bridge mode, but I'm not familiar with that particular ISP or their capabilities. If they are NAT'ing for you, then additional security on your side might be overkill, but again, I'm just speculating a bit.
