Using cable modem/router combo only as modem
I'd like to know how to run my existing modem/router (C6250|AC1600) only as a modem and use a separate router (Nighthawk AX6 AX4300 RAX45). Is there a way to do this?
- Mar 22, 2020Deleting Trusted Devices is actually very easy, it's too bad Netgear doesn't tell you how to actually do so. Open the Orbi App, login and connect to your Orbi device. Next press the Home icon located top left, then select Account Management. Now select login settings, and open My Trusted Devices. You should now see a list of your trusted devices. Press your finger on the right side of the device you want to edit, and without letting go slide your finger to the left. (Similar to Deleting an email. You will now see Edit Divice Name - Set as Primary - Remove Device.
Yes, you should be able to find a router mode option on the modems web page, should be under Advanced Tab/Adanced Settings
Router mode may say Yes and No. Select No.
May find a Bridge mode option here as well.
Reivew the online user manual for this model modem for this information if you can find it.
