Astaro with ATT U-Verse

jstraten
I am in the process of switching from DSL to U-Verse. I also requested a block of static IP addresses. Now, I understand that the modem used for U-Verse does not support bridged mode allowing me to do PPOE in Astaro.

What are my alternatives? Did somebody get this to work?

ATT is also talking about an RG (residential gateway). It sounds like that it is a modem/router combination device. Are there alternatives? Is there a 3rd party modem?

Technician will come to my home on Saturday. So, I would appreciate some quick feedback.

Thanks,
Jens

    Since you have a block of fixed IPs, you shouldn't need to use DHCP; set the EXT interface up with a static IP in one of the 5 IPs, and then add the 4 others.

    Yes, that's what I am doing in my current setup for DSL. However, this requires the modem to be in bridged mode and it is my understanding that the ATT gateway modem doesn't support bridged mode.

    If I understand the other replies correctly I have to use DHCP and assign a "static" DHCP address by referencing a MAC address.

    It appears that ATT only supports very basic setup requirements for U-Verse customers.

    Did you try your suggestion with U-Verse?

    Thanks,
