<p dir="auto">I'm helping a friend install a new SG-3100.  He currently has a comcast business modem that cannot be put into a true bridge mode.  The workaround I'm trying to do is put the SG-3100 in the DMZ. Turn off DHCP on the Comcast modem, and then have his network switch run from the SG-3100.</p>
<p dir="auto">Details:</p>
<p dir="auto">Comcast modem = 10.1.10.1 - DHCP disabled</p>
<p dir="auto">SG-3100 = 10.1.10.2 in the DMZ - Set to dish out DHCP 10.1.10.0/24 connected to Comcast modem via Lan1<br />
WAN set to DHCP, DNS 8.8.8.8,  .4.4</p>
<p dir="auto">Network switch connected to Lan 2 on the SG-3100</p>
<p dir="auto">The setup was working for 2 hours or so. LAN traffic was fine. File shares accessible, internet accessible.  I ran the software update that the SG-3100 wanted 2.4.x.  The update installed, the SG-3100 rebooted, got a solid orange light on the SG, no internet. Rebooted the SG again, light went away.  LAN traffic is fine, no internet.</p>
<p dir="auto">Any ideas if this was the update or does something seem out of whack with my setup?</p>
<p dir="auto">Any help is appreciated.</p>
<p dir="auto">Thank you!</p>
