Called Cascaded Router configuration on The POS router they gave .. their support and their support “Supervisor” could not make it work.  I just did .. FUN.

Yep; but even IP Passthrough, routed subnet, etc. all count as NAT sessions against the internal NAT table.

BTW, that's the feature you're looking for - routed subnet. That will pass your /26 to another network device over an RFC1918 subnet. The steps depend on what particular gateway hardware they have, but a quick Google of the gateway model and "routed subnet" should get you to the right spot. Assuming of course the other service limitations aren't a dealbreaker.

Bonus points, the small business fiber has extremely limited NAT session limits (depends on hardware, but not greater than 16,000 sessions) and everything counts. Cold loading CNN.com (an AT&T company) in a default config without an adblocker will use close to 3000, which will saturate and cause errors on some of their gateway hardware (NVG595). If you want to use it for any serious purpose, stick a tunnel out to a real connection.

I have a ATT fiber line for a customer that has a 300/300 circuit, but its not a MIS they are telling me we cannot route a /26 (they have allocated) to my device behind it.  ☹  Any options?
