How can I access my Router (one of the Linux machine connected to
Router) which is on private ip address from ISP?. This ISP is giving
ethernet service to home and they assigns private static ip address for
each connection, how can I access that router, which is using private
ip addr for wan port. I know the ip address of ISP's router. Thanks.

Can you clarify what exactly you are trying to do? Are you trying to access
the internal admin web page of the router from one of the PC's behind the
router?

What kind of router is it? Was it supplied by your ISP? Typically - the
router (WAN) get's it's TCP/IP address via DHCP from the cable / dsl modem,
and the PC's behind the router (LAN) get their addresses via DHCP from the
router. For a Linksys router - for example - it's default address is
http://192.168.1.1 ... when trying to access it from within your network.

It's surprising that you say your ISP is providing static provate IP
addresses via the router...

Well, this ISP gives static ip addr (private ip addr) for WAN port,
since I need to connect two PC to internet. both are Linux machines.
but my WAN ip addr is private ip addr, I need to access my both
machines from work, also I need to access my Router from work. If my
WAN ip addr is public, then I can directly login to Router, also I can
do port redirection to my Linux PC's, in this private IP addr case, how
can I access my Linux machines?. Thanks.

Sorry, this Router is not supplied by ISP, this is regular Netgear
Router.

If your ISP is really providing a private IP address for your router, then
you cannot create a connection to your router unless your ISP supports it.
You'll need your ISP to setup something like a port map in their network
just for you.
