gheist did a nice job; but, left out one important detail. &nbsp;Before you add your router to the DMZ (which will accomplish what you want), reserve its ip address for it so it stays put.<br />
How to do both are in the advanced section of the manual he provided a link to.<br />
BTW, bridge mode really only applies to DSL (for the most part).

There is explanatory text in website snapshot setting up DMZ in that Spanish guide advising to make static DHCP entry. Criticism taken, i will translate next time.

I have a Netgear Cable Modem model CG3100D-28PAUS and need to set it up in bridge mode so I can attach another high spec router to it to control internet traffic and VOIP.<br />

How do I configure this to be a bridge?

How to setup a netgear Cable Modem in bridge mode

Networking hardware includes the physical devices facilitating the use of a computer network. Typically, networking hardware includes gateways, routers, network bridges, modems, wireless access points, networking cables, line drivers, switches, hubs, and repeaters. But it also includes hybrid network devices such as multilayer switches, protocol converters, bridge routers, proxy servers, firewalls, network address translators, multiplexers, network interface controllers, wireless network interface controllers, ISDN terminal adapters and other related hardware.

A switch is a device that filters and forwards packets of data between LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer or the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join segments are called switched LANs or, in the case of Ethernet networks, switched Ethernet LANs. A hub is a connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports; when a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.
