It is connected to a Alcatel-Lucent G-241W-P.
"Whats my ip" comes up withe the 185 address, the 100 is from my orbi
if this is it, then it is most certainly a router.

The trick then is to do one of two things:
- Put the Alcatel into "bridge" or "passthrough" mode so that the Orbi WAN address will be assigned the public IP address, or
- Put the IP address of the Orbi into the Alcatel DMZ.
There seem to be user manuals for this product on the web (many sites).
Or, the ISP tech support line may be able to do this for you.
was just now trying to gain acces to the alcatel, but with little luck, i might have to contact my isp to try to help me out.
thanks very much for your help, much appreciated
