Cable Your Modem Router to a Router or Gateway
If you want to cable the modem router to a router or gateway, you must log in to the modem
router and change its Router Mode setting. Changing this setting prevents certain network
conflicts that can occur when two devices on the same network perform routing functions
such as network address translation (NAT) and DHCP (assigning IP addresses to devices on
the network).
