That was it! &nbsp;Thanks dpk_wal! &nbsp;

New to the area, need some assistance...<br />
<br />
A client is at a location where he only can only get Verizon DSL for Static IP and I am setting up a Watchguard Firebox X750e on that Verizon Business Static IP line. &nbsp;Verizon gave us a Westell Versalink router as the DSL/Ethernet gateway. &nbsp;I had the router set to &quot;Bridge&quot; and &quot;Bridge&quot; under Advanced&gt;WAN&gt;Multiple PVC VC 1 Configuration as was able to pass internet access through the Firewall.<br />
<br />
However, I am unable to access the Firebox from outside using the Fireware Management software. &nbsp;It does not connect.<br />
<br />
This was not a problem with Verizon FiOS; since the FiOS passes the Static IP thru directly.<br />
<br />
I suspect that the Westell Versalink is catching the Static IP and not passing it thru to the Firebox X750e; which is what I want to use to manage the Static IP. &nbsp;Is there something on the Westell Versalink DSL modem I need to disable so it would just allow the Firebox to connect externally using the Watchguard Management Software remotely? &nbsp;It doesn't seem like anyone at Verizon knows what the heck I am talking about.

Networking hardware includes the physical devices facilitating the use of a computer network. Typically, networking hardware includes gateways, routers, network bridges, modems, wireless access points, networking cables, line drivers, switches, hubs, and repeaters. But it also includes hybrid network devices such as multilayer switches, protocol converters, bridge routers, proxy servers, firewalls, network address translators, multiplexers, network interface controllers, wireless network interface controllers, ISDN terminal adapters and other related hardware.

The term broadband commonly refers to high-speed Internet access that is always on and faster than the traditional dial-up access. Broadband includes several high-speed transmission technologies such as digital subscriber line (DSL), cable, fiber optics, wireless (for which there is a separate topic), satellite and broadband over powerlines (BPL).

Software firewalls, also known as host-based firewalls, provide a layer of software on one host that controls network traffic in and out of that single machine. Most operating systems now include firewall software, but many available software firewalls include central distribution, antivirus systems and disaster recovery.
