Hi there! After having a lot of trouble with my internet slowing down and shutting off entirely and then turning back on again, an AT&T tech finally came to service my router. He checked the line and it seemed to be OK so he asked if I'd changed the name of my router's Network and Password - of cour

So i have a question, If i own an NVG 599 (long story short, my friend lost one when he moved, paid the fee when they cancelled the service and found it in a box in their attic later and gave it to me), would i be able to use it and would i still have to pay the "lease equipment" fee for AT&T Fiber

I was forced to get a NVG599 router after using 2wire 946 before.  Since  then my slingbox will not work.  Att wants to charge me $15 extra a month in order to open a port so I can use it.  I don't think it is right since before changing modems everthing worked fine.  I also didn't have to rent a mo

Ok I have a permanent vpn to my workplace on my pfsense firewall. Before I was on Time Warner Cable and had the modem in bridge mode and wifi off.  The DIR-815 was also in bridge mode, though it had an IP from DHCP and could be managed that way, but it left the IP assignment to the pfsense fir

Hello, I tried to enable Mac filtering but was notified that I had to disable WPS. First off, I have been unable to find the manual for model nvg599 ( did find one for nvg598 ) There isn't a feature I have found to disable WPS? I found some bit that said WPS was a component of WPS-PSK. Does anyone k

New service installed on 8/31/18. Last week was on the phone with Customer Service for account maintenance, and the Rep said I was 'eligible' for a new, upgraded Gateway.

Greetings friends—I’m unable to find current (Jan 2019) step-by-step instructions for establishing IP Passthrough or Bridge Mode to use 3-puck Google Mesh WiFi with ATT Uverse gateway NVG599 (firmware 9.2.2h4d16). Thank you for your help.

Just got my shiney new NVG599 and open the box to discover that there are apparently no provisions for wall mounting it . In my current configureation, all three pieces are wall mounted above the distribution panel and all the cables a cut so that there is no slack to move them anywhere (install tec

From ATT's page:  https://www.att.com/Common/storefront/resources/pdf/att_bridged_mode_vs_ip_passthrough_nov2012_v3.pdf the bold text says: "Note: Remember to make a copy of all current ip settings before proceeding." but does not give a link, nor explain how to make that copy. Is this copying done

My NVG599 keeps rebooting itself.  Not disconnecting, but a FULL reboot.  This happens 2 - 3 times a day, if not more. In my "Firewall" log, it shows a LOT of "Illegal IP Address" under "Reason".   Sounds like it could be a DNS issue and since AT&T locks down the router and won't allow us to change

Hello, all.I am trying to setup my own router with a static IP (purchased 5 from AT&T) behind my Arris NVG599. I have been able to get as far as to setup the static IP on the Arris under Public Subnet and set the DHCP range to the single IP of my router's LAN port. I also setup IP Passthrough with t

I have multiple issues with my NVG599.   I run static IP from home.  I also am a software developer with many years of experience.  I have more than a basic knowledge of networking and run my own servers and domain from home.   The first issue is finding a manual for the NVG599.&

Had this NVG599 for about a month It replaced an older ATT router.. I was using the default setup where both the 2.4 and the 5.0 Ghz were the same, so it was automatically providing 5.0Ghz to my FireStick and 2 other 5Ghz devices. At one point. I changed the default setup by changing one of the SSID

I just recently got the ATT provided nvg599 simply because it has IP passthrough mode. I paid a pretty penny for an ASUS router and i would like to be able to use it.

I want to create a roaming network in my house to distribute wifi to areas not covered by the wifi from the RG NVG599.  My solution is to connect the Apple Airport Extreme to an ethernet switch in the attic that distributes the same ethernet to two other set top boxes. The attic is an ideal location

I have been fighting my NVG599 router to get the 5GHz / Wireless AC radio to work and it turns out I couldn't because the radio uses IP address #.#.#.64, which I had in my DHCP server range. Why in all that's holy would ARRIS (or AT&T) have it take up an address in the middle of the range so that we

I've seen a few different possible solutions in the forums but they are either way over my head or not quite the right approach for my situation. I want to add a second route which has parental control features for wireless access (set time limits for wireless access).  I would like for the wi
