The IP address for the gateway is remaining the same, so a single static IP is assigned to the WAN interface.
Use the built-in functionality of the CBIG to provide IP service to multiple devices connected to the router by using the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server and Network Address Translation (NAT).
Note: Using a static IP in this way does not increase the reliability of the internet service.
