However, when you look at the modems web pages you may not see bridge mode. You may See Router mode = Yes or No on some modem UIs.
That is why I checked the manual and provided a link to the appropriate section in that. In this way the user did not have to dig around looking for "modem mode" or "modem only mode", phrases that are not in the manual.
When dealing with questions like this, I put myself in the user's shoes and try to remove any unexplained specialist jargon. It reduces the likelihood that they will have to come back later with more questions.
It is not what I know that matters, but what the user may not know.
