    Hi everybody,
    I’m a bit confused about how my zeroshell router is acting.
    everything except the gateway is working.

    Goal:
    Get zeroshell to act as a residental gateway with NAT.

    My setup:

    1. set the IP of ETH00 to: 192.168.1.1/24
    2. enabled the DHCP server in zeroshell for ETH00
    range: 192.168.1.100 – 192.168.1.200
    3. Enable DCHP client on ETH01
    4. Create a bridge with ETH01 and ETH00
    5. Enable NAT on the bridge
    6. Enable DHCP-client on the bridge
    and here is the problem, the bridge gets the IP from my private network (192.168.1.100 in most cases).

    I have got i going for a while if I first add ETH01 to a bridge, then enable the DHCP client it gets a adress from my ISP. Then I add ETH00 to the bridge. If I do like that it works until the DHCP lease expires, then I get the same problem as before.

    Can anyone see where I go wrong and help me?

    grateful for all responses

    No need to bridge the interfaces unless you’re trying to accomplish something not listed in the diagram.

    After removing the bridge and some minor tweeks it’s now working like a charm 🙂
