Arris/Pace 5268AC Bridge Mode equivalent
(for customer supplied router - regular U-verse service w/o static IP/block)
This gives your Orbi router a WAN address that bypasses the ATT router and allows you to use the Orbi in "router" mode. You will want to keep the wireless radios of the ATT device turned off.
Caveat: ipsec (site-to-site VPN) will not work. AT&T blocks it, requires upgrade to business class service.
1) Access your AT&T provided device at http://192.168.1.254.
(Can’t access? May be your router’s LAN address is already 192.168.1.0/24, if so change it first)
2) Go to Settings -> LAN -> LAN IP Address Allocation
3) On the device list, locate your router by verifying it’s IP address against WAN address on the router.
4) Change the settings as follows
--Firewall: Disabled
--Address Assignment: Public (Select WAN IP Mapping)
--WAN IP Mapping: Router WAN IP Address (default)
5) Click save, you should get a configuration successful message, and Device Status should change to DHCP renewal.
6) On your router, do a DHCP renewal or unplug/replug cable to the AT&T device.
7) Your router should now have a public IP address. You can still access AT&T device at http://192.168.1.254
