You can, but you have two options:
1. Call Shaw and get them to do it for you.
2. Use my method to put it into bridged mode yourself. (Cisco model only.)
Here's how:
i. Log into the router on 192.168.0.1, and disable wireless and LAN DHCP. You'll need to manually set your NIC to 192.168.0.x after you apply the changes. I turned off the firewall functionality as well, under the Security header.
ii. After the reset, log back into the router, and click the Administration header; select the Management tab. Here's where the option would normally be to change to Bridged Only. We're going to add it, sort of.
iii. Use the F12 developer tools in IE or Firefox, edit the HTML and look for the beginning of the form:
<form name="administration" action="/goform/Administration" method="POST">
You'll see a line like this: <input type="hidden" value="1" name="preworkingmode">
I pasted my modification a line above it: <input type="hidden" value="1" name="working_mode">
This may cause the page to bug out; that's fine. Don't change anything else on the page or in the form, hit Save Settings.
iv. The device will reset itself. You'll have to use a new IP address to access it -- 192.168.100.1. Once it responds on that address and you see a login page, you can replace your old modem with it.
