I think you need to add a share point first. I may be wrong though, but
it doesn't hurt to try it out.

Hi Jonathan,
THanks for the info. I was going to try bridge mode and have the gateway

I would suggest using the bridge mode on the Apple routers. Generally only
tunnelling will cause you issues, but any VPN will probably use tunneling. You
should still be able to block MAC addresses in one of the manual airport
controls even with DHCP turned off.

Sorry I think there was some confusion in the communication. You are correct
that DHCP and static IPs have nothing to do with the local LAN. I think what

Hi.
In addition to what Jeff said, you should just be able to set you're airport
router to point to the comcast modem as it's default gateway.
Sounds like that tek at comcast needs to find a new job.

Hello Scott,
AFAIK, you always need public addresses for both ends of an IPv6 tunnel,
because they are included in the payload as part of the protocol.
This means your IPv6 network would have to be connected to the SMC and this
router would have to support IPv6 tunneling.
For normal Internet ac
how come you need to use this modem? In theory at least, if it uses docsis, it
should work with any cable modem. Now, sometimes, if you have phone service as
well, one modem handles everything, or it could be that they don't follow the
docsis standards completely.

If I've understood you correctly, the comcast device is doing dhcp for

You shouldn't really have to worry about this sort of stuff.
If you have 2 devices which it sounds like you do, your modem will in
most cases get an ip from your isp without you having to do anything.
It doesn't matter what ip address your router has since it would be an
internal 192.xxx ip.

If your Mac is setup for DHCP, it will pickup the address and other info from
the router/modem. If you have configured your network to use static IP
addressing, then you still would do nothing.
