    Incoming what? One local (LAN) IP address or one Internet (WAN) IP address?

     

    I don't understand the question, but the real reason for commenting is to say that you might get better advice in the right section for the MR1100.

     

    You have posted your message in the section of this community given over to Nighthawk WiFi Routers. (This is easily done, given Netgear's impenetrable community structure.)

    You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers about your hardware, in the appropriate section for your device. That's probably here:

    Mobile Routers, Hotspots & Modems

    I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.

        I still don't understand the question. Looks like it baffles other regulars here.

         

        It is usually a good idea to explain what you are trying to achieve, not your idea of the solution.

         

        I assume that you have read the bits on the manual about the built-in firewall in the MR1100.
