Virgin Media broadband: is it possible to get a router which does bridge mode?

    Hi,

    I currently have a Virgin Media broadband connection via a Technicolor TC7200 (had this before the UPC service became Virgin Media).

    This router does not have a bridge mode.

    A couple of years ago I called the customer service asking about bridge mode. I was told this was not possible and they don't supply routers with this mode.

    So fast forward now and was wondering that since they became Virgin Media is it possible to get a router that has bridge mode?

    Thanks.

    It's possible to get bridge mode on this modem. I had one of those a few years back and had it bridged - there's details on this post https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057106714

    Yes the white hub (I think it's 3) can be put into modem mode. You must be on an IPV4 i.p. address and have Horizon Wi free turned off. Follow this guide here

    Most importantly follow the reset procedure to the letter.
