| Configure WRVS-4400N for ATT Static IPs
The recent thunderstorms in my area ( Hanover Park, IL ) blew out my SBC issued 2Wire Home Portal. I have a 5 IP Static IP plan from ATT. The 2Wire Home Portal was setup by the ATT installer to handle static IPs to 4 of my PCs with static IPs ( which are also Public IPs ) which are webservers exposed to the internet. The remaining one IP Address was used to share the internet by my wireless laptops.
Now I replaced the 2Wire Home Portal with DLink 2340 DSL Modem in bridge mode and using Linksys WRVS-4400N in PPPoE mode to access ATT.
While I get one static IP from the login how do I use the other 4 ? and get back my webservers on the internet as before ?
I spent more than 4 hours with Linksys and they say the router is incapable of NATting.
Please help.
Thanks in advance

Sorry, Sritri 
The WRVS4400N does not support 1-to-1 Nat. The Linksys models that do are the RV016/042/082.

| Thanks DocLarge. I guess I will have to return this too
Are the RVxxx easy to configure or is it very difficult ?

Not too difficult at all. Have a look at the simulators and see for yourself:
1) RV016 - »ui.linksys.com/files/RV016/1.2.3/
2) RV042 - »ui.linksys.com/files/RV042/1.2.3/home.htm
3) RV082 - »ui.linksys.com/files/RV082/1.1.6···mary.htm
Firmware on the simulaors is out of date, but the actual firmware on the devices (when purchased) are current.

| Thanks Jay.
I just noticed that all of these are 10/100 and not gigabit. This also means I would need a separate wireless gateway/rtr too right ?
Isnt there an all in one from Linksys or is it available as a Cisco product ?
Thanks for taking time to reply.

You could go with a Linksys SLM2008 Switch which gives you 10/100/1000 and hang a wireless access point (or router) off of an RV0XX router:
»www.newegg.com/Product/ProductRe···33124258
This little powerhouse is PoE compliant and offers port mirroring, vlan trunking, to include STP to name a few functions.
Another choice is going with a Linksys WAP4400N and hanging it off of an RV0XX router:

If you go with a WA4400N, look around for a minute; you might be able to find it for cheap.
