I don't see how this is broken.

When I bought my (IPv4-only) cable modem, I was given the choice between a

model with a single Ethernet port (that is the bridge version), and the

more expensive model with multiple ports (plus Wi-Fi, IIRC), which I assume

is actually a modem integrated with an IPv4 NAT-router.



To me, this is a feature (mind you I took the cheapest model!) not a bug.
