Sounds like your modem is not in bridge mode. You proved it by being unable to connect to the Internet. One other way is using DMZ.
In my case I have to ask my ISP to switch the modem to bridge mode by dpwn loading different firmware. If you want to try using DMZ,
Google it for procedure.

Hi, I did call Xfinity to put it into bridge mode. They didn't state that thy did a firmware update, but they restarted the gateway and now the enable bridge mode is there now. I tried that. I couldn't get internet from the arris to the Netgear. So I disabled bridge mode until I find out what is wrong/fix it. I have a cat5e ethernet from the lan port in the arris gateway to the wan port on the Netgear.
I can't seem to get into the router interface without the darn Genie. Keeps going in a look when I answer the quetions.
Thanks
