";s:4:"text";s:5241:" Of course the factory default LAN IP address range can be changed if desired.This approach seems to be a good template for adding an external router to the other Rogers D3 modem/gateway products.Thanks again for your participation and contribution to this project.Unfortunately, they barely cover the range of a 2 bedroom appartment.2nd: In the initilization screen, Click Status > Capability. If the fix is planned, why has it taken years without any action?I even made a little cardboard "box" of sorts that sits overtop of it and has some thick tinfoil on both sides and drapes over both sides to block the antennas - however even that isn't enough that my access point can detect a very faint -87db signal and happens to be on the same channel as my current wifi; so causing interference.Short of cracking open the CGN3 and physically disconnecting the antennas, how can this be fixed?I have in the past confirmed quite certainly that these modems can and will broadcast a wifi beacon sometimes when in bridged mode. Bridging your Rogers Ignite Modem allows you to use a third-party router and disables the modem’s Wi-Fi capability. From searching forums, it seems these issues have been reported and that Hitron and Rogers are aware of them, yet years go by and no fix?Why is this still unfixed, or is there a new firmware that maybe hasn't been pushed to my device that fixes this problem? Learn how to use your own router in combination with an Xfinity wireless gateway.
I can't remember any case off the top of my head where the modem was actually found to be operating in Bridge mode and broadcasting a wifi network.
What Is Bridge Mode? Forum discussion: Using my Westell 6100 in bridge mode with my Linksys WRT54G. That same wifi SSID is now being used by an access point I have in my house - so the Hitron is now showing up as a potential security threat (looks like an AP trying to get my clients to connect to it instead and sniff out passwords or something).
You have to be the account holder or authorized contact level 1 or 2 for them to help you with that.Unplug your router from the scenario.. as its address will conflict when you get the gatway back up.If the hard reset still does not work, then you will need to call the internet technical support and they can disable the bridge mode for you. If you’re running your own router alongside the modem/router combo your ISP gave you, there’s a good chance you’re inadvertently giving yourself a huge headache and a host of difficult-to-pin-down network problems. You have to be the account holder or authorized contact level 1 or 2 for them to help you with that. All nodes and client devices connected to your Velop's Wi-Fi or to the existing modem-router (gateway) will be on the same network and can communicate with other devices within the network. I can't remember any case off the top of my head where the modem was actually found to be operating in Bridge mode and broadcasting a wifi network. A modem connects your home to an Internet Service Provider's (e.g., Comcast's) network. Open a web browser and go to the web interface of your modem/router combo device. If anyone is willing to help me with this, it would be appreciated. The goal of the Rogers Community is to help you find answers on everything Rogers.
I don't know if it's been fixed in new firmware since that time, but I do know it's a real issue and I've experienced it myself before.Anyhow, I reset the modem to factory default to rule out the issue and it turns out that it is in fact a far-away neighbour that only my commercial access point can pick up from my location, but not my other wifi devices.As for the tinfoil box - I am aware of the passive cooling the modem uses and it's not a complete box, more of two flaps covering the sides with the antennas and I've made sure it doesn't interfere too much with airflow (it doesn't, however I have not tested how efficient it is at blocking a wifi signal either). Re: Help making a "Bridged Mode Setup Guide"
Just ask! I have my CGN3 in bridged mode and I noticed that it is broadcasting a wifi signal.
Hey fellow forum users. Any idea what the problem is here?
