C3700 how to put into bridge mode

I log into the routers page and can find nothing about bridge mode. Do I unclick the wireless gateway box? Will that do it?

       C3700[v1] or C3700v2? Look for "Model" on the product label.

       Searching the User Manual might be easier and more effective than
    searching the unit's management web site.

       You can if you want to, but no.  A wireless router without radios is
    still a router.

     

       Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your (actual) model number,
    and look for Documentation.  Get the User Manual. Read.  Look for a
    topic like "Cable Your Modem Router to a Router or Gateway" or "Change
    the Router Mode".  Or "bridge".
