I just ordered service with sonic and I'm really excited about Sonic vs my other options at this point.
I was trying to figure out how I wanted to set things up with the equipment. I'm pretty sure I don't want to really use the router part of the Pace 4111N, given that I already have a running set of linked Apple routers setup the way I want them. I'd love to have a static IP though.
So my options seem to be:
Bridge Mode - Frowned upon as it disables the diagnosability of the connection.
DMZPlus - Would still result in a double NAT unless I disable NAT on the Apple Routers.
Broadband IPs on LAN - This doesn't sound like it is really intended to be used to give another router an IP...
LAN Subports - Sounds like my favorite option. But it isn't clear to me how this would work if I only get 1 static IP. Is it possible to have the modem get a DHCP IP, and give my router behind the LAN Subport the static IP?
So really I think I'd end up wanting to run with Bridge Mode or LAN Subports, but I'm not certain how this would interact with only having a single Static IP.
