AT&T Router Passthrough Mode Setup Guide

So the AT&T Router is pretty awful, so let's enable passthrough mode in order to use our own router instead!

I made a mistake in this video. By default, pfSense blocks traffic from its Lan to private addresses on the Wan side. If you can still connect to the ATT router, that's perfectly fine.

thank you, after settign up passthrough I can still see att router via 254 ip address=

[@camf33]

@@albertroswell I was about to ask that question too.. in a way I would like to still access the '254' ATT GUI if my Pfsense box dies then I can still revert to the ATT device. Question, do I assign the WAN IP as static on the Pfsense WAN interface or does that get assigned through DCHP when bridged?

@@airuzair2424 **WAN port on the Asus goes to the ethernet of the ATT gateway** The ONT is for the ATT Fiber "Feed."

I just watched the video again and everything is very very straight forward. watch, pause and follow instructions for each step and you'll be fine. you may have to reboot all the systems a few times to ensure it works (as he says in the video) but I did not. it worked first time for me.

Thanks for this great video. I'm trying to help a buddy setup the Linksys EasyVPN in his office. He has an ATT BGW210 modem with a linksys router behind it. I think he has multiple public IP's on the ATT account. He has security cameras on the ATT BGW210 network so I don't want to mess up his remote viewing of those cameras. Does IP Passthrough allow me to only pass one of his public IP's to the secondary router (Linksys) where I have the EasyVPN service setup? On the ATT Modem, I don't see a way to only forward traffic on the VPN port to the Linksys router. Can you provide that info? Thank You!

[@chicagoangler]

Hey! Great video. I currently have fiber into my GBW 210 att router. I am totally following how to set up my TP link mesh Wi-Fi 6 system via ip passthrough mode via the GBW 210 - my only concern is will I still be able to somehow have a 2.4ghz network either via the 210 or somehow through a mesh System that offers 2.4 and 5 ghz. I only ask this because I do have some items in my home that will only run on a 2.4 ghz network. My att 210 router sucks so I need the mesh system to reach other points in my house. But I also need 2.4 network for other devices. Any thoughts you may have on this topic? Thanks!

[@camf33]

Is there a reason you would leave the AP up on the ATT router if your mesh supports both bands?

[@ldeporto]

Hello, can you do the same procedure if I have Static IP from my ISP or does it only work if it's set up for DHCP? Thanks for your help

Big fan of your videos! I did this a long time ago BUT recently I did a Synology router test and it failed. After troubleshooting I found that tracert showed the vlan I was on then my AT&T router’s private ip. My UDM shows my public IP is my wan. How can this be?

@@MillerTechnicalServices Nope… EDIT: Based on your question I went ahead and changed the IP on the AT&T router to the UDM Pro gateway… Disaster. Had to full reset the AT&T router. 2nd EDIT: I watched your video again to see any discrepancies, I found one. The "Default Server Internal Address" on your AT&T box was populated with a private IP. On my AT&T box that field is greyed out and I am unable to edit.

[@dhiraj027in]

Just one question - Will all the devices connected to my IP-Passthrough router will get the same public IP? If yes, then how can I overcome that? Any thoughts

[@MillerTechnicalServices]

No. Only the device (ie your new router) who’s MAC address you’ve passed through will get the public ip. Anything beyond that will receive its IP address from your new router.

[@Gundum]

would the speed be the same on the wifi router or would there be a loss? or by some miracle... does it actually get faster?

[@MillerTechnicalServices]

It depends... (in basic terms) if the original router is not capable of scanning packets fast enough, just sending them to a better router and having that do the scanning and everything else can improve your speeds.

[@Warfalcon]

I'm about to pull the trigger on this passthrough w/ a TP Link router. I noticed you turned off all firewall stuff but I don't think you ran through that with the new router setup in this video. Does the new router have default firewall rules already?

[@MillerTechnicalServices]

Yes

[@kenmack]

I've been told that if you use the same IP/Subnet on your router - you should switch the default IP/Subnet of the AT&T modem/router to their alternative (172.x.x.x). Is this accurate?

[@hadeedahmed9558]

Since I disabled all the firewall stuff for this, Do you think my network is vulnerable to any attack of some sorts?

Why should you not be able to get to the AT&T router page from your PFSense? I used this video to setup DHCP-Fixed to my UDM Pro and it works!

What is the benefits of that new router? I know you said the AT&T router sucks but curious. I may do this. Open/forwarding ports is pretty tedious but curious if there is any other reasons you recommend that router you have. Thanks!

[@MillerTechnicalServices]

The ATT router doesn’t do anything like intrusion prevention (in the way that something like the UDM does). It also can’t do vlans and a bunch of other more advanced things. If you’re just a basic home user with a few ports open, you should be fine with the ATT router. Edit: you also can’t change your dns server on the ATT router so you can’t use something like pihole without manually configuring it on every device you have connected to the router. Doing it on the router level is MUCH better.

[@Warfalcon]

@@MillerTechnicalServices Honestly the DNS stuff alone is worth getting another router. Would you recommend another router for a basic home user or this one? I am a basic home user and I currently use 1 Unifi AP Wifi6 for my wifi. Thanks!

[@brandonpittman956]

The better way of accomplishing this with pfsense is using a true bypass method "pfatt/wpa supplicant mode" it's a bit complex but if anyone is up to the challenge of completely eliminating the AT&T GW then this is the way to go.

[@MillerTechnicalServices]

I mean you CANNN do that but really shouldn’t. It’s called double natting and it’s not good. If you need to open a port, you have to do it twice plus there are plenty of other issues like increased latency. They could also be on the same subnet so there could be overlapping ip addresses which would create issues. Really it’s best to just use pass through. It’s one of those things that takes 7 minutes now but will save you hours of troubleshooting later.
