Configure ZTE F670L for NAT on LAN Ethernet Ports
-
This feels like the most ridiculous problem ever. But I have a new ZTE fiber modem from Teko and it is configured with NAT to the Wifi and that is working fine. Public IP on the modem is good, wifi is handing out DHCP with 192.168.1.0/24 addresses and devices connecting via wifi work fine. Perfectly, in fact.
The problem, I don't want any devices on wifi, this unit is for Ethernet networking. It has a four port switch in it (LAN1-4) and I want to use them. I told the ISP that I would use them.
What is happening now? If I plug a device into one of those LAN ports I receive a public IP address, not a NAT'd private one. Somehow I'm being handed the public space, rather than the routed space. Oops. Also, SIP traffic is not working there (and I suspect, many other things are not, either.)
I can't figure out how to get the LAN ports to be behind the NAT and on the same network as the wifi. Help!

Wow - that stinks.
do you have access to the config of the ZTE?

Yes, no problem there. But.... it makes no sense.

It seems that in the WAN configuration there is the Port-Binding option, it assigns 1 port to a specific function (IPTV for example)
Also in LAN there is a DHCP Binding option
Maybe disabling or changing any of these options will help you. -
@dagors That's such an odd wording for the action I want, but that's what I had just tried and I'm about to plug in and see what happens with that.

This was it. What a dumb way to have that worded!!

Sorry, google translate.
But it's good that it was fixed. -
