XXL package and IP bridging/pass through

Hello

I am thinking of gettin the XXL package when I move in to my new place.

Back in the days (telewest days), the public IP obtained could be passed through to a device behind the modem, so I could get the actual public IP on the device/firewall of my choice.

Is this still the case with virgin media and their packages? or is the modem doing the usual NATing stuff...

Thanks for your help.

Still the same. The modem passes the public IP to the device it's plugged into, be that a host, router or firewall.

If it's a host, no problem - 1 IP. If it's a router / firewall you will need to do the NAT-ing
