Thanks to some helpful noggers out there I now have the hidden page that the optus firmware doesn't link to in their menu:<div><br></div><div>RgNatControl.asp</div><div><br></div><div>Turning NAT off from this page will enter the device into modem/bridge mode, so if I can't get an actual modem then this is the next best I suppose. No word from Optus about the charges to my account for devices I never asked for, but that's not for here.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Hopefully anybody else with this device who has been hoping to get off it's in-built NAT/routing will find this info useful.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks also to everyone's off-list replies, very helpful.</div>
