Hi I need some advice here.. my company have this huawei modem model EchoLife HG8240H and it goes to firewall(SOPHOS) as the internet gateway router.. but the DHCP control is on windows server.. and I wanna ask can this Huawei modem also act as a router with DHCP & reserve IP follow the current firewall & server setting.. it is because we want to relocate the server to another office and discontinue using that firewall? or need a specific router is better? I have a router TP-Link model Archer C1200.. my ISP is time internet.

dont think it can do what you want it to do

c1200 is old and slow and not enterprise grade...
