You may need to turn bridge mode on or off on the Rogers Xfinity WiFi Gateway Modem if you are adding or removing a third-party networking solution.
Before you bridge your modem, note the following:
Putting this modem into bridge mode will disable any Rogers Xfinity WiFi Boost Pods
- use and prevent you from using Ignite Rogers Xfinity app.
- If you’re a Rogers Xfinity Bundle customer, and Rogers Xfinity TV is connected to the modem via WiFi, bridging your modem will disconnect any WiFi-connected devices and cause issues with your Ignite TV service. Note: While this is not guaranteed, we suggest you only turn off the WiFi on your modem and place your third-party solution into Access Point/Bridged mode instead.
- If your internet stops working when the modem is bridged, check the top of your modem for a solid white light. If you see this, try rebooting your third-party WiFi network solution and making sure it’s still connected to the gateway first.
- On your computer or device, open an internet browser.
- Enter 10.0.0.1 and hit Enter.
- Sign in with the following credentials:
- Username Admin
- Password: The default is “password” but you’ll have been asked to change it on your first sign-in.
- Select Gateway.
- Select At a Glance.
- Next to Bridge Mode:
- Select Enable to bridge the modem
- Select Disable to turn bridging off.
