How to set Xyzel router (model VWG4825-B10A) to bridge mode
I have set up my Orbi and it is working fine, however my Zyxel Router from my internet company is still broadcasting a Wi-Fi signal. I assume I need to change the outer to work in Bridge mode. There are 3 setting (ADSL, VDSL and ETHWAN). Does anyone know which should be set to brisdge mode?

R6300[v1] or R6300v2? Look for "Model" on the product label.

Thanks for that detailed description.
You might want to start again, with an accurate equipment inventory,
including actual model numbers. Look for "Model" on the product
label(s).What, exactly, did you connect to what, exactly? (Hint: If a device
has different types of ports, then "connected to device" is not enough
detail.)What, exactly, if anything, is currently configured as a wireless
access point?

"cannot" is not a useful problem description. It does not say what
you did. It does not say what happened when you did it. As usual,
showing actual actions (commands) with their actual results (error
messages, LED indicators, ...) can be more helpful than vague
descriptions or interpretations."access" it how (web browser?), from what, which is connected to
what?> [...] my Wifi networks are still available [...]
How much do you expect the non-psychics here to know about your "my
Wifi networks"?> I am at a loss as to why the factory reset does not fix this issue.
If you can provide a better description of what you're doing with
what, then "this issue" and its causes might become clearer.While I appreciate your "attempt" at helping here, your reply was mostly fileld with snarky answers. Trying to be funny or coy with comments about not being psychics and making rude comments about "thanks for that detailed description" are not helpful. Please go troll somewhere else. Asking for more information is one thing, but if I had all the answers when I wrote it, I would not have posted for some assistance. I am all set now anyway.

No doubt some future reader (who has the same symptoms as you,
whatever they were) will find that explanation of the solution you found
as helpful as I did.
