Can I use The AC-1900 as a router only?

I use the AC-1900 on Comcast in Florida. I trying to use it with Rogers in Ontario but they won't authorize it for direct connection, you have to use a Hitron gateway supplied by them. Can I put the Hitron in bridge mode and use the AC-1900 as a router?

    I was mistaken.  The C7000 cannot be used solely as a router.  I was thinking of the D7000.

      Thanks, do I just plug an ethernet between the two, the AC-1900 doesn't have an internet-in port.
