Some sort of bridge mode or option to disable NAT

Hi there

Yes I know that’s a strange request but my ISP is forcing the use of their router in front to be eligible to self install speed upgrades plus their IPTV runs checks to see if their router is first otherwise it won’t work for more than a day.

Previously was using a Unifi setup with NAT disabled but unsure if the route 10 would work like that or if I can somehow assign a specific LAN port to pass through a public IP or DMZ to the ISPs router. Their router does some TR069 magic to allow the IPTV equipment to work.

ISP router: CR1000B
ISP: Verizon Fios (NGPON2 - 2Gig) so slightly different setup than everyone on GPON

This is not planned as an outright feature, but the port forwarding article includes an example for a DMZ.

Thanks I’ll give DMZ a try and see if it works since I did try MAC cloning the route 10 and the ISP instantly found out that it isn’t there equipment due to tr069

Adding an update to this

For DHCP when running the UCI commands to disable is there a general setup required for a post-cfg.sh file since when just creating the file using nano /etc/post-cfg.sh

By chance does anyone have a sample post-cfg.sh file since I assume that the post-cfg.sh file is just enabling options that are hidden or not available in the UI.

This thread might be a good one to check out: Post your sanitized post-cfg.sh

Thanks I did try one from there to test but it’s not saving. So not sure if I am doing something wrong on my side or if it wipes the post-cfg file after a reboot

Since alta equipment starts up really fast so I am not sure if it’s something specific with the startup that wipes the file each time

Stealing this little section from a post I believe @Alta-MikeD wrote at some point since it helped me in the past and just to make sure everything is in the proper spot:

The absolute path on Route10 including filename needs to be: /cfg/post-cfg.sh. You could use vi or nano directly on Route10 to create that file, or use your preferred editor on your computer, but line endings require to be line feed (LF) if going that route.

Once the file is in-place and you’re connected via shell, issue: chmod +x /cfg/post-cfg.sh. You should then just be able to run it with: /cfg/post-cfg.sh.
