Hello,

I don't believe the modem has a public IP address. All it has is the 192.168.0.1 address - and that address is locked in the modem's programming from the factory. And the computer doesn't have a NAT address. It is only assigned the address from the ISP (whether the ISP uses NAT on their end, I don't know, but I don't run NAT from my end).

The network works except for those two glitches - no DNS from a hard boot and those ugly error messages.
