I have an Xfinity Technicolor TC8305C telephony modem/router, and want to use a separate dual band router, Netgear N900-R4500, for wifi. I understand I must have the Xfinity modem/router in bridge mode in order for the other router to work properly. (I assume that will turn off the Technicolor wifi so it will not interfere with the Netgear router.) The Comcast tech who came today could not figure out how to get the Netgear router working, and when we tried to set it up, an invalid IP address would come up (on both my computers). Also, neither wifi lights (on the Netgear) came on to suggest a wifi signal. Please advise what specific steps I can take to get my dual band router up and running.
I hope someone out there knows more than the Comcast tech! :p
Please help!
