CBR40 Modem Only Mode
Can someone please explain if I can turn CBR40 into a modem only mode and attach a different router (Asus, Eero etc.) to it? I see there is a bridge mode in the settings but does activating this mode...

I will try what you mentioned but I wanted to see if anyone actually has a setup like this at home, I don't want to buy a new router without knowing if this is possible or not.

Very good idea to test before spending money. At some point, you may want to consider upgrading to a DOCSIS3.1 modem, especially if you have interest in subscribing to a gigabit level of service.
I have no idea how many of the combo cable modem units Netgear sold. My impression is that customers come to the forum only when they have a question, and none of the regular participants have a CBR device.
