I have an 851 that i need to configure to work with an ATT gateway. I have the WAN ported set up to receive DHCP from the ATT GW but it is not receiving the IP. I have the int that it is connected to set to DMZ mode. The gateway states that the 851 is set with the public IP assigned via DHCP, yet the 851 has not been assigned an IP. Ran a debug and got the following.
%Unknown DHCP problem.. No allocation possible
*Feb 28 20:58:26: DHCP: Waiting for 60 seconds on interface FastEthernet4

Has anyone run into this problem?
I have also tried attaching a firewall (Pfsense) to the ATT gateway and the same problem with DHCP exists.
Thoughts?

I just realized i may have put this in the wrong place.

Complain to ATT, you've already tried two devices and not getting an address, that should be enough.

Tried that, they don't support Router behind router. However they will send out a tech (connect tech) that will charge $99 for their services. I was hoping that someone has run into this problem here.

Don't say you have a router, say you have a PC. Of course the PC must exhibit the same problem. They cannot charge if it's not working in their supported configuration.
Then when you want things properly done, get an 877 so you can get rid of that cheap modem/router.
