    What you call a "fiber box" looks very much like a gateway. At least, that's what Google suggests.

     

    Icotera i6851-00 - Google Search

     

    If it has four Ethernet ports on the back that confirms it and you could be in "double NAT" territory, with two routers in your network.

     

    FURRYe38 asked the question because that makes all the difference to how your network operates.

     

    You say this thing is in bridge mode and that the ISP has to control it. That's an odd arrangement. Might be worth confirming it with them.
