On any wifi router you turn off the radio and you end up with a wired router

Just for clarification the VM hub will have 4 components

1# A cable modem
2# A NAT firmware
3# an internal hub that feeds 4 port and the radio
4# The radio that broadcasts local LAN traffic

By turning off 4# you still end up with a router, what needs to happen is for 2# to be turned off which will then turn the unit into just a moden and hub (with radio)

It's roughly the same as what they do to the business modems when you want fixed IP's, they turn off the NAT side of it..
I did say earlier in the thread that I had no idea of the NAT settings and I was just advising how to switch off the radio.

We would not support NAT as it falls outside of the support scope.
