Hello All, this is my first post.
In my research on how to avoid using a centurylink issued modem to use my block of static IP's I found this thread for my setup. They switched my fiber line a while back to use PPPOE and stopped using IPOE - LAME right? This happened because of the death of PrismTV in my area. So my options to continue using my Block of 5 Static IP's are A- Get my ASUS router to play nice or B- Get a CL modem that has the block of Static IP's function..... Aside from this option centurylink issued modem are well. Poop.

It seems to be working pretty well. I was able to map my PBX server with ease. I just wanted to see if there was a newer or modified solution. This original post and solution was from 2014.
My planned setup and devices:
Asus RT-AX58U running the latest Merlin - this gets its IP automatically from the ISP via PPPOE. Centurylink modems have options for single statics or Block of Statics blah blah....
Wifi/DHCP is off.
My wifi is going to be handled by a set of eero 6 mesh. This has a static lan IP assigned connecting it to the ASUS. This is the router handling DHCP for the actual network. Its acting as a client because eero does not support PPPOE. (Dammit Centurylink)
Servers
3 Debian Linux Servers for my web, mail, plex and some other services
1 Centos FreePBX appliance.
If anyone out there has a goodbetter solution I'll buy the beer.
