Firmware is showing as up-to-date and I tried a factory reset. Still receiving a private 10.193.X.X address on my second router when in bridge mode.

Thanks,
Zach

    This did not work. Though I found out it doesn't appear to be a problem with the Netgear equipment. I found out that AT&T does not give public IP addresses to consumer devices and I have no way to get one. So that's why I'm getting a private IP.
