Netgear Nighthawk RAX40 & Bell Fibe
Ok How do I use the RAX40 with Bell Fibe I just have Fibe line with an ONT coming into house not ethernet or cable..
I believe you need to connect your ONT to a bell modem. Do this by connecting one end of an ethernet cable to the ONT and the other end to the Bell modem WAN port.
Then you should operate the bell modem in 'bridge mode' with another ethernet cable connected from the bell modem LAN port to your RAX40 WAN port.
Actually was looking to not use bell modem period any ideas ho to eliminate it..
I think with Bell you have to use there modem, I think they call it a "Connection Hub".
It should be included with your service.
Do you have an active service with Bell?
yes and guys are using own routers without the HH3000
I think you would be better off operaitng the HH3000 in bridge mode.
This basically makes it pass the WAN IP directly to your connected router of choice and disables all the routing features on the HH3000.
