If you want to use the other 3 ports and WiFi then it's not modem mode.
But as far as I know there is no change to how modem mode works - it'll remain the single port only

Re: R36 Firmware Beta Test (was R35)
Does the Superhub disconnect the PS3 when running @ 300mbps like it does currently?

If you have the beta software but can't access the forum, drop a Private Message to Mark Wilkin who will sort out access

Yet I had a modem which fed a switch directly (was though the business 2050 modem on multiple fixed IP's).. The modem mode disconnects the router...
There's no reason as to why the other three ports should not work unless they specifically turn them off. They could have locked down WAN DHCP to port #1 and left the other three ports to run as a gigabit hub
A weird set-up but totally feasible...

To me it works as expected, whenever I have switched routers to bridge mode only 1 lan port has ever worked.
A internal modem directly linked to a switch isnt a direct comparison.

Re: R36 Firmware Beta Test (was R35)
Never said it was but there are times when I have needed such a setup.. Not likely on a single IP residential account but would be a great option on the business superhub especially with the tunnel issues for those with multiple fixed IPs
