Connecting Two BGW210
I’ve got two BGW210 AT&T routers. The main one is plugged into the ONT box. (MAIN) Specifically, can I plug the secondary (SECOND) BGW210 into the MAIN via Ethernet cable and have them work? I’ve done an IP passthrough tutorial from this site but it doesn’t seem to work. What Ethernet ports need to be plugged into on the MAIN and the SECOND? I’m not familiar with all the terminology but the MAIN has internet coming in through the ONT. I have an Ethernet cable in Ethernet One on the MAIN going out to the garage where SECOND would like to be placed.
is it possible to connect two BGW210s together without double NATing?

Where did the second BGW210 come from?
AT&T allows only one of their LEASED gateways per address.

I think it was left behind by the people that moved out of the house. When the new people moved in they got AT&T and got a new BGW210.

Again, AT&T does not allow 2 of THEIR gateways (BGW210) on one account. It should have been returned when the service was cancelled.
Since that gateway is leased and owned by AT&T, it is considered stolen equipment and it will never work on another account.

Well I didn’t realize all that. Guess I’ll just buy an access point
