Does anyone have experience with the Arris BGW210 used for AT&T fiber installations? I have a Turris Omnia I'd like to use for Wi-Fi. The BGW has an IP passthrough setting and I'm wondering if that's what I'll want to enable to turn the BGW into a bare-minimum gateway. I'd like all the LAN and Wi-Fi traffic to go through the Turris. The BGW admin portal info pane defines IP passthrough as: quote:Passthrough: Allows the device's public IP address to be assigned to a single LAN client. There may be situations where Passthrough is not allowed. It seems like this feature singlehandedly relegates the BGW to performing WAN duties.

thiazi posted:It isn’t quite so cut and dry, but yes the pass through mode essentially does what you want. I have it myself and am using an edge router behind it for my network. Does fine. I see. I'll give it a shot. And if I have issues, perhaps I'll ask for clarification as to what you mean by "not so cut and dry." Thanks for the encouragement to take the next step.

hooah posted:I just did exactly this. I used this guide and it worked pretty well. The wifi radios on the BGW didn't turn off as expected, so I had to follow this thread on the AT&T forums. Turris Omnia migration complete, but not all desired features are functional. I am trying to basically have the same SSID offer 2.4/5 Ghz and have clients connected to whichever they are able to connect to. No luck. Tried enabling 802.11r thinking that this might be what I want. My basic research indicates these features relate to band steering, but unclear the precise distinctions. So far the 2.4/5 radio is nonfunctional. The 2.4 radio is taking all traffic.
