Setting up and accessing Rogers Hitron cable modem in bridge mode

If you are like me and want to have more control over your home network then chances are you also want to put your ISP modem in bridge mode so that your own router could be used as a gateway.

Here is how to setup your modem in bridge mode:

1.Go to the device home page.

2.Log in using the credentials mentioned on the little fold out received with the device.

3.Click on Basic and find the option saying GATEWAY and Disable it. Modem will reboot now and will have its Wifi and other router features disabled. You can now connect it to your router as WAN access.
