ATA 188 PC Port
The ATA 188 has 2 ethernet ports. One is the uplink and the other is to be
connected to a PC or other ethernet capable device.

The uplink port I connected to a cable modem. It works fine.
I want to share this internet connection with a LAN that I have at home. So
I want to use the other ethernet port in the ATA to connect to a small
router which is the gateway of my LAN.
In this scenario, the ATA would have a public IP and my LAN would share this
same internet connection.
I couldn't make it work. Does anybody know if this is possible ?

Thanks
Andrew

Sounds like you need another IP address for your Router. Or you would
need to put the ATA behind your firewall.

Are you getting link lights on the ata and the router?

RE: ATA 188 PC Port [ In reply to ]
Scott, thank you for your reply.
I thought that I would be able to install the ATA 188 in front of the
firewall. There are a lot of voice gateways who have a LAN + a WAN port.
Two ports, like the ATA 188.
So the ATA 188 Lan port can only be connected to a PC ??? This is a huge
limitation of the ATA (one more limitation). I need to use the ATA in front
of the firewall, once my VoIP carrier does not support NATed endpoints.
So, the conclusion is that the ATA 188 does not have a LAN port that can be
connected to a router ? I mean, I need two internet connections, one for the
ATA and one for my LAN ?

Thanks,
Andrew

No. You will just need an extra IP address from you Broadband
ISP(usally an extra $5), one for the ATA and one for the Router. Same
internet connection. If you're not getting a link on your router, you
may need a crossover cable.
