C7100V - Does it have a Pass Through Mode (bridge mode)?
I only want to use the functions of the cable modem and not the router/firewall/wifi. Can this be put into a bridge mode (like other Comcast modems) where the modem is functioning but all other services (routing, firewall and wifi) are turned off so that my other router can handle?
If so, how is this done from within the user interface?
Thanks
Hello FootballFanatic
No option for bridge mode with this modem.

Can you please tell me if bridge mode will be added in an upcoming firmware release? I am going to return the device unless I know it will be available soon since its worthless to me without one.
My Current Setup
Wall->CM600->SonicWall->Switch->devices
So I can't put the C7100V in place of the CM600 without bridge mode unless I'm mistaken.

Please see here:. Bridge mode is present as "NAT" mode in the GUI.
