Bridge your C7000 modem and connect up a external wifi router that has the features that you need.

But thinking to change on something better. Because, you can't control your network. With previous router, I can make access by the hours, watch what is going on in my network, this one is really SUX. I don't think will by again Netgear. Any ideas what to buy to really control my network?

I think you'll find that any of the combo devices you buy are going to have the firmware controlled by the ISP. Good luck with your next device!

You are not right, I'm controlling my device, because it is the option to use your own device and get 10$ off per month. But, as a normal person I love all in one device, don't have space to buy new Router and attach to this one.

Users have access to the modems web page which is user controllable, thats it. However FW updates are controlled BY ISPs only. NG develops the code, then hands off to ISPs to test and certifiy for use on there network before THEY push out to modems.
Good Luck.
