IP range mixup
Hi, Recently switched my modem. Got a ATT modem+router. Did a passthrough and configured the network. When I hooked up, router picked 10.0.0.1 as the IP range, probably due to a conflict before I...
Thanks for the help. I was able to resolve by configuring a different IP range for the modem. It seems the ATT modem does not function just as a modem.

Also, this is not a camera or a PiHole question.
So why did you mention them as the problem? I thought they were what you were trying to sort out.
Throwing irrelevant details into the conversation only gets in the way.
Can you tell us what is the problem?

After reading through the forums it seems I have done the bridging correctly. Netgear router is getting the Public IP assigned and correctly connect with all the devices through 10.0.0.x IP range.
If you have done the bridging correctly nothing will get an address in the 10.0.0.x IP range.
Do it right, restart the network as specified and everything will get an 192.168.1.x address.
That's because your modem will be inactive as a router – that's what bridge mode means – and there will be nothing there to allocate 10.0.0.x addresses.
It may be that your router remembers the old arrangement. Reset it and restart everything and you may restore your sanity.

You want the router to give it an IP address? Or it has an IP address that you want the router to use?
Did you ever read the manual for the R7800?
Visit the support pages:

Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.
Check the sections in the manual Specify the IP Addresses That the Router Assigns and Manage Reserved LAN IP Addresses
.
You may have done that already. I can't tell from your message.
I mention it because Netgear gave up on supplying paper manuals years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.
Somehow I don't think that will get you very far. They answer your question, but it is probably the wrong question.
