Using 2 routers and IP Address
I am posting this wondering how anyone who puts a switch between their ONT and routers manage to get around the issue of only having 1 IP Address? I have internet 150/150 and there's only 1 IP Addres...
I the actiontec and your router has 2 different public ip address then you have 2 ip's.
Telus support told me they only issue 1 ip for home services. Would this mean my 2nd router shouldn't work?
As long as both the routers have 2 separate public ip addresses it should work, unless they blocke the other ip address. Another way to check if how many use-able ip addresses they assigned to you is by checking the sub-net mask of the ip address assigned to you. Check the WAN ip address in the router and see what the subnet is, it should look like this 255.255.XXX.XXX. Post it here so that we can check it.
