@jakecrew,

 

If you will deploy another firewall router behind your existing router provided by your ISP, you will have a Double NAT scenario.  To know more about Double NAT, access the article below: 

 

What is Double NAT?

 

To know the ways on how to solve issues (or prevent) Double NAT scenario, access the article below:
