Hi,
My 3 month old BT business hub 5 is constantly dropping connection and wifi is poor. I have it set up to use multiple static IPs from BT (5) for my CCTV, server and a pc. I tried as Asus router a while ago and could not get the multiple IPs working or setup, I bought the business hub 3 instead as the setup was straight forward.

Has anyone got this setup with BT Business multiple static IPs?

Thanks,

It should read 8800AXL

Have a look at the following link the setup is the same for the 8800AXL, you can use one to one NAT or no NAT setup, both setups will need a firewall as you will be totally exposed to the internet (most people will install another router or firewall that will obtain the one of your static IPs, eg sonicwall)

No NAT setup below

1. Turn off NAT on the WAN profile, and leave the firewall on (we need the firewall on, so you don't get a recursive DNS issue)
2. Assign the WAN IP that your ISP say should be assigned to the router to the LAN side of the router
3. Setup a firewall incoming rule to allow all traffic through the firewall so you can ping the static IP range (screen shot example attached)
4. Either assign your remaining WAN IP's to the DHCP server or turn off the DHCP and set these WAN IP's to the device manually, and the gateway will be the new LAN IP address of the router
