Hi,
Would it be possible to have one of the four ethernet ports on the router to be in bridge mode while the rest of the router would be in routed mode? At least the official fw does not have such a setting.
The background for this is that I have a separate wifi base station connected to one of the eth ports and I'd like to have ISP provided public IP addresses for devices in that wifi, while all the rest should have my own private IP addresses behind NAT. My ISP hands out only five IP addresses and since I have 20+ devices in my network a complete bridged mode is not an option. But two of my wifi devices would require a distinct public IP address in order to operate at the same time so I'm out of options without some tweaks.
