Static routing on CAX80

Question

Have a question/concern for the Netgear community - although I think this might be more of a feature inquiry than anything

Recently purchased a Nighthawk CAX80 modem, and replaced my Comcast DPC3941T DOCSIS 3.0 modem with it. Overall speed and functionality shows an improvement with my overall download/upload speeds which is great

Concern I have is when trying to utilize this to setup static routes against other routers in my home lab. Using the GUI interface for the CAX80, I see literally nothing which highlights an option to configure a manual static route. Seems like a pretty glaring feature limitation since a majority of other standard modems/routers (including the modem I just swapped this out with) has this functionality

Firmware version on the modem is = V2.1.3.5

Are there plans to add static routing as a feature or is there a model that does?

Hi Oliver,&nbsp;That would be great if you could get some further validation on that - or if possible even work to implement this feature in a future firmware release. If you're paying $400+ for a device, I'd think anyone would want some of those fun features to play around with&nbsp;I also only suggest this - because I do know that some of your other netgear router models provide this functionality based on your KB articles =&nbsp;https://kb.netgear.com/24322/How-do-I-set-or-edit-static-routes-on-a-NETGEAR-router
