Thank you. I have read those instructions but I don’t see where I put it in bridge mode in the settings. Is bridge mode an option somewhere? Thanks

Hi

In the last step - Disable the option ''Residential Gateway function''

This will effectively put your modem in bridge mode.

Hi @Patrizio

In bridge mode, the two (2) Wi-Fi radios built into your Fizz Wi-Fi modem will be deactivated, thus disabling its Wi-Fi capabilities.

• Open an Internet browser and enter 192.168.0.1 in the address bar.
• Identify yourself using the following login information:
  • Username: cusadmin
  • Password: **enter your Wi-Fi password**
• Select General
• Select Gateway
• Disable the option ''Residential Gateway function''
• Click Ok

If you want to re-enable the Wi-Fi capability of your Fizz Wi-Fi modem, you'll need to reset it to its factory settings by holding down the reset button on the back of the device for ten (10) seconds.

And reconfigure it

Also in the future, if you want to undo bridge mode, you can simply factory reset the Fizz modem.

Using a small, sharp object, press and hold the modem’s reset button for at least 10 seconds.

Once your modem has restarted, follow the same instructions you used when you initially installed it.
