NH20T Network Access Hub - Bridge Mode
I'm running an eero mesh network connected directly to the NH20T network access hub. Spent some time today with a Telus tech discussing bridge mode. My understanding has always been that if you're ru...
Thanks very much for the informative response! This is more or less what I thought - although far more eloquently explained than my meagre comprehension of networking.
Any thoughts on the Telus tech's assertion that the NAH should not be bridged? Could it be that the multiple IPs they were seeing on their end was because the NAH was in fact not bridged in the first place, and not because I did have it bridged?
Custom setups like bridging a modem and adding a 3rd party router can make troubleshooting for techs much more difficult. This is my guess anyways, as I can't think of any reason why bridging a modem would cause an issue on their end.
At first I thought the multiple IP's was incorrect, but after thinking on it that actually makes sense. If you bridge only LAN 1 and your Eero picks up the first public IP, the other ports (IE LAN 2) would grab a second public IP if you plugged something into it. Years ago TELUS would give up to two public IP's per account, not sure if that's changed.
