You want answers to your questions, here you go.
1) Yes you have to reset everything if you make changes to the IP scheme. That means for the STB's & DVR's, you have to do a hard reboot on them, in order for them to take the new IP scheme, if you do not wish to use the default 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 or 172.16.0.0/255.255.0.0 scheme that ATT does allow on their RG if you have UVerse TV & Internet.
2) Issues with the private network, are caused by people changing how the RG is setup by default, or attempting to operate outside the IP scheme that is allowed.
3) No they do not advise or not allow people to use their own private networks. They do advise that if you wish to use a private network with their equipment they provide (ie the RG), they suggest using a Router behind router scheme in DMZ Plus mode.
So anything else you care to know about, or do you want to continue bickering back and forth about something that has been overly stated on these forums multiple times, and what I just stated, and stated before.
At this point, your point is moot robb0995, and there is no further need for discussion on this from this point forward.

Ren: That's just it. We don't know. Maybe something bad, maybe something good. I guess we'll never know, 'cause you're going to guard it. You won't touch it, will you?"
