FW = Firmware
Your ISP modem has a built in router and wifi already:

Modem Combo Units:
Couple of options,
1. Configure the modem for transparent bridge mode. Then use the NG router in router mode. You'll need to contact the ISP for help and information in regards to the modem being bridged correctly.
2. If you can't bridge the modem, disable ALL wifi radios on the modem, configure the modems DMZ for the IP address the NG router gets from the modem.Might downgrade to v20 as others reported this solved there problems. Recent FW seems to have problems.
