Pass Through or Bridged with Static IP

Hello,

We are a business in Southern NJ and have internet service with a static ip. We have a firewall behind the comcast router and need the public static ip passed directly to our firewall. We need this for vpn connectivity and other services that require a static ip. How do we accomplish this as the bridge mode on the modem still passes a private 10.x.x.x address to the firewall?

Any help would be appreciated

Hi Shagrax and welcome to the business forums.

I can help with your network. With bridge mode, you're not able to pass along your static information as static routing is disabled. You may want to look into setting up pass through mode. I provided a link to help with this. Please let me know if you need anything.
