att sent me a modem netgear 6200 to connect to dsl. i connected the modem with eternet cable to wan of extreme and another ethenet cable to port on extreme then to my desktop pc. I am also connected wirelessly with mbp to extreme. my airport utility says dbl nat message which I ignored. My extreme network mode is set to DCHP and NAT. Both computers are connected to internet but, how can I get rid of the dbl NAT message?
thanks Ernie
Are you saying that the Double NAT message popped up during the configuration and you chose to ignore it at that time....or are you saying that the message is popping up continuously?
What operating system are you running on your Mac or PC?
This pertains to Back to My Mac but also addresses the double NAT.......
Ernie will basically have two choices:
1) Get into the Status setting of the AirPort Extreme and click the option to "ignore" the Double NAT...and hope that this will not cause issues on the network.
2) Configure the Netgear modem in bridge mode and change the configuration of the AirPort Extreme to "Connect Using = PPPoE".....which would be the correct way to configure both the modem and AirPort Extreme.....but it also involves more work.
Hey Bob i did the option to"ignore" dbl NAT no issues, I would just like it to be the correct way. prior to this modem att was using a motorola modem and i did not have this dbl NAT issue. Would you give me the steps to configure the modem to bridge and change the extreme to PPPoE?
thanks, Ernie
