Connecting MR60 to Xfinity Gateway
Ok so bear with me please here. I have an existing Rodgers xfinity XB7-T and was gifted an MR60 and 3 MK63 satellites. How on earth do I connect the MR60 to the gateway. Initial steps I took ...
Yeah - so the MR60 literally says it doesnt support bridge mode on your gateway. Just a little FYI.
I also literally asked for clear help and you used every method of overcomplicating the answer. I can see why people all over the world don't know how to get appropriate tech advice if this is what you give.
Not sure why I even asked if this is the answer given. "Contact your ISP" I literally laid out the exact equipment hoping for an answer for how to work with my EXACT equipment - because I know I am not the only one. but alas - here we are.
Good day

The trouble can be that bridge mode means different things if different contexts.
In your case, it is the Xfinity XB7-T that needs to be in bridge (modem only) mode. That turns off the router bit.
xfinity xb7-t bridge mode - Google Search
There are several useful links there:
Here's what Xfinity says:
Use Bridge Mode on your wireless gateway - Xfinity Support
Then you can use the MR60 as it stands.
An alternative is to put the MR60 into access point mode.
