WNDRMAC and N300 Netgear Routers
Hi,
I'm having a lot of trouble using my current router (N-300) as just a modem to supply the internet connection to my new router WNDRMAC as I didnt want to have to buy a new modem I thought I could just use the old one.
Is it possible to set up the N-300 as a modem and then connect from it's LAN port to the new router (WNDRMAC) WAN/Internet port? I have been searching forums all day and tried a lot of solutions with no success.
Is there someone out there who can take me through the process step by step.
Thanks

- jmizoguchiVirtuosoN300 is not a model
- GnarlAspirantHello apologies for using the wrong Netgear code - the router is DGN2200 and I have tried using bridge mode fixes that work for the DGN2000 but it is not the same, apparently DGN2200 does not support bridge mode but I was wondering if there was a way around this. Such as altering the IP address and DHCP settings?
- jmizoguchiVirtuosoSome of DGN has option to do it and I thought dgn2200 did bridge mode
