XR1000 - How to get public IP in double natted scenario
Sorry, my model wasnt listed in the Model dropdown. Its in the title.
As the title states - I'm in a double natted scenario, where my old Router was able to log into my PPPoE internet and get a second public IP no problem at all.
How can I achieve that with this router?
Thanks in advance

Two "public IP" addresses? What are they? Where are they?
None of that is a useful problem description. It does not say what
you want. It does not say what you did. It does not say what happened
when you did it. As usual, showing actual actions (commands) with their
actual results (error messages, LED indicators, ...) can be more helpful
than vague descriptions or interpretations.> How can I achieve that with this router?
I don't know what "that" is. I know nothing about your (unspecified)
"my old Router", or how you configured it. I know nothing about how you
configured the XR1000, or what about it doesn't satisfy you.How to fix issues with Double NAT | Answer | NETGEAR Support

My bad, I thought I did post it there.
- Unless you are paying for two internet connections you'll only have one IP address. You can put the WAN IP of the XR found on the System Information page into the DMZ on the old router and that will resolve the double NAT.

This is 100% incorrect. Some ISPs dole out additional IP addresses. Ive done it in the past easily, and just did it again now.
- Is there a specific usecase for why you need two? The XR will not allow you to have multiple public IP addresses
