Hey guys. So here's my situation. I'm getting a new isp in the next few days, and as far as I can see . They do not allow customers to have admin access on the modem. So I need to do my changes when the technicians are here installing my fiber.
The box that they have is an ONT box. So modem/router one.
I don't know if theirs do have a bridge mode so idk.. but I do know that I have ways to get around the double nat situation (I need port forwarding)
Either cross my fingers they have DMZ so I can DMZ my router or if their router is unlocked, I can try to do PPPoE passthrough so I can configure my router as PPPoE client. But idk what is better. What do you guys think?
Which is better? I've never experienced anything to do with PPPoE so any info is appreciated!! Thanks!!
