Correct the reason for the bridge is to avoid double NAT, DMZ could be an option would have to give it a go, not the ideal option. I know the Draytek Vigor 130 works well in bridge mode but I also know that Telstra uses IPoE while other ISP's use PPPoE

Give it a go - if you get Open NAT through using DMZ, and bandwidth speeds remain high - then your setup is great.
