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...
The only equipment that I use from telus fiber is their Nokia optical modem. I did not use any SFP since I am using the TELUS provided optical modem that provide the conversion from fiber signal to ethernet. Yes I have a gigabit switch after the optical modem and 2 pfsense router connected to the gigabit switch. As per description of yours, I would say that you are not using any optical modem?
Ah, I got it now…. My system has the T3200 GPON transceiver directly connected to a 4-port fiber switch. And then that switch has 2 fiber connections to my 2 routers…
I got just where I was mistaken now… I’ll experiment with better fiber switches till I find one that can handle the heat… I truly thank everyone for there time addressing this matter….
Cheers…
