Its more than likely a modem/router combo device. And it causes a double nat.

Options? (only use 1)
1. put the netgears IP address into the ISP device's DMZ
2. put the ISP's device into modem only/passthrough mode
3. put the netgear in access point mode (half ruins the point of a gaming router)

United kingdomOpenreach is not an ISP and does not work with domestic consumers. It is a network operator that provides connections to most of the UK's ISPs.
All the BT modems that I have encountered are modem/routers. Worse, BT provides devices that are not amenable to modem only operation.
- The modem has openreach written on it but my isp is talk talk, could you recommend a modem to run the xr1000 through that is good?
