I have 8 static ip addresses assigned to me via broadband, and here's what my current router does.</p>
<p dir="auto">It assigns an ip address to itself on the WAN, and bridges to the interenal network that has 5 static ip addresses in the same subnet. Can pfsense be setup like this?</p>

<p dir="auto">Probably not, but pfSense can give you an extra useable address.  Instead of the lame 5 that you get cause the router eats one and won't let you use it for NAT'ing, you get six…pfSense <em>will</em> let you use that sixth IP for NAT.</p>
