Description

Dear Fonera development team,

In The Netherlands, a lot of people already have an NATbox in their network. These NATboxes are provided by the ISPs which mostly deliver integrated systems (often even with Wifi).

It would be very helpful to have some sort of LAN only mode, or bridging mode which allows us to disable the NAT translation of the Fonera 2.0 (and perhaps the DHCP), so it would be possible to create only one home network in which all devices are accessible. Also the double NAT gives more errors and slow connectivety.

I hope this can in the future be done by either: 1. only connecting the LAN port of the Fonera to the network 2. connect the WAN port to one part of the network and the LAN port to another part of the network (Fonera working as switch/bridge)

Kind regards,

Robin Harmsen
