The Firewall Passthrough is set to Allocation Mode set to 'Passthrough

It's my intention to change the Allocation Mode to 'Off', as soon as I

I'm not quite understanding how one PC is going straight through the router to the ISP's network whereas you have other PCs with private addresses.

In my case as I understand it the ISP's router redirects from its external network to internal private. PC with say 2 NICS one to the router and one to a switch whereby connect the local machines using PC with 2 NICS as gateway doing DHCP, firewall and all that.
