Hitron bridge mode access settings

Hello,

switching from Bluecurve bridge mode to Hitron bridge mode. Need to save a few bucks! The bluecurve allowed the user to select bridge mode. Shaw has put my hitron in bridge mode automatically as I connected it. When I had the Bluecurve I could access the admin panel. I tried with the hitron but I cannot connect with the ip 192.168.0.1

Because the Hitron is now just a acting as a modem. What are you trying to do that requires you to access the admin settings?

With the blue curve I was able to log in and do a reboot thru the control panel. Also if ever needed I could turn off bridge mode.

Is Hitron user access to the admin panel not possible while in bridge mode?

@mineincalgary I should also mention that you could use ip passthrough. You would get a second public ip from Shaw and connect your third party router and the Hitron could continue acting as a router. More info here:
