each device maker calls it something different.

Are you planning on putting the netgear in access point mode or the att device in its passthrough/modem only mode?

They will connect but it just needs setting up properly to prevent a double nat.

You mean the RAX50?its a pretty rock solid router.Sadly, its usually not the router that is a bottleneck for most peoples network but the device you're using and distance/interference.&nbsp;

So with my 1000gb plan from AT&amp;T and my router I should get really good speeds right? All AT&amp;T told me was to bridge it with there gateway and my router. Was also told to make sure to turn off wifi on there gateway.
