Bridge or Router?

Netgear modem port connected to WAN port of a Netgear router. Router DHSC is set to on. Seems to me that "Bridge" woyld be correct. (modem default setting is Router).

Should I change it?

    OK, thanks Gordon. I was going to leave the modem DHCP on, turn the wifi router DHCP off, and move the CAT cable from the WAN port to a LAN port, but since this double NAT doesn't seem to matter, I'll just leave everything set to defaults. Apparently won't have any noticeable affect on speed?


    You're most welcome.

    There's little to no impact on throughput (speed) as long as the equipment is working properly.
