Question Re: Business Service with 13 Public IP Addresses

Am I overthinking this?

I have an assigned range from Virgin: Start: 80.nnn.nnn.24 / End 80.nnn.nnn.31
First USABLE IP auto assigned (?) to the Hitron is 80.nnn.nnn.25

In my modem mode I have managed to get a fixed IP Address on the LinkSys as 80.nnn.nnn.26 coning from LAN1 into WAN port.

Rather than trying to figure out how to configure multiple WAN IP's within LinkSys, and seeing as I have to have the HITRON powered on and active, am I better off taking it out of modem mode, leaving LAN1 connected to WAN but then using LAN2, LAN3 and LAN4 to handle three other fixed IP addresses to e.g. Web / File / LDAP ?

All LAN activity and wireless would be handled via the LinkSys so no need to add or change this part of the network?

Assume I would have to take the HITRON out of DHCP mode and manage the fixed IP routing there, but think this may be preferable.

Thoughts?
