the TG1682g is a modem/router/phone device. it puts you in a double nat.
After putting it in bridge mode, after the reboot, power it off and disconnect all devices from it even the coax.
The connect coax back to it, power it on and give it a couple minutes.

Make sure you only connect the router to it. Comcast only gives out 1 public ip address and when the TG1682g is in bridge mode, it can only have 1 device connected to it.
