Hello,

I just got my At&t internet and was wondering how to connect my Netgear WNR1000v2 router to the 2wire 2701HG-B.

I would like to use my Netgear as the main router and 2wire as the modem if possible.


Thanks in advance!!

It's been ages since I messed with the 2701-HGB but I am pretty sure there is a way to put that into Bridge mode which will cut out the router and just use it as a modem.

Search for that model with Manual at the end. Search the manual online for Bridge mode. If I can remember, I will come back and update this post.

Read this URL. I don't like the way it's laid out but it does seen to tell you what you are after.

This looks good also.
