Hub 5x modem mode workaround?

So I've been talking to virgin and I'm in the process of having a tech come out as my 1gig BB has been terrible meanwhile I've been wanting to get in to modem mode on the Hub 5x and while you can get to it via http://192.168.0.1/?page=modemmode it doesn't work, once you do this the ports are dead.

I have since been advised that as a workaround I can disable DHCP and WiFi and this will work the same as modem mode is this correct?

      No I didn't, just realised I have responses notifications aren't coming through until a day later and I've got 2 young kids running around so not on the ball 🤣

    No it will not work as well as modem mode but you can double NAT

    set your router WAN port with

    IP 192.168.0.77

    subnet 255.255.255.0

    gateway 192.168.0.1

    DNS 194.168.4.100 and 194.168.8.100

    DMZ on hub to 192.168.0.77
