Update: it seems to be stuck in bridge mode. If i use the bridge url it will allow me to access the router and i can factory reset it from inside that menu. It will restart and let me access the normal menus but if i go back to admin it will show as being in bridge mode and still will not let me connect.
If i click to go back into router mode it will reboot and will go right back to bridge mode.
I did somehow manage to get my chromebook connected to the wifi, by factory resetting and pulling the ethernet cord before it could reboot. I then tried to login to the router from my chromebook and once again got the error saying i was not connected to WiFi and have to be to login in even though i was logged into WIFi

Hello xavvax
That is odd even after factory reset it still stays bridged I would double check with your ISP ask for there higher up modem support to make sure something on your account is not causing the modem to revert to this mode because the ISP pushes out the bootfile and the firmware so I am guess after the factory reset it syncs back up with there CMTS and goes back to those settings.
