Re: NAT behind NAT not a bad thing ?
Well, to start with, I use Trango equipment. The AP / SU (CPE) link is a bridge (no choices). It's hard to explain if you are used to WIFI equipment but basically my APs and CPEs do not exist on the client to internet network -- they are totally invisible. So whatever I do with them has no effect on the IP address assignment of the client router.
I am currently 100% bridged. As I get larger, if I decide to grow that much, I will probably do 1 to 1 NAT. Many (perhaps the majority) of my customers use a VPN on a regular basis and there has never been a problem for them. They are extremely grateful as this means that they don't have to drive 75 to 100 miles on the days they work from home!
My edge router is my T1 router -- you don't need a modem for a T1, only for DSL. |
