Can I use C1000A or Q1000Z as router only ?

I have a C1000A and Zyxel Q100z modem+router lying around and I was wondering if I could use either of them in router only mode. This is the opposite of bridge mode where the router is disabled and works as modem only.

The C1000A configuration only allows the DSL modem as the WAN port connection. I would imagine the Zyxel is the same.

No. There's no Ethernet WAN on either of those.

Only if those devices have "LAN-as-WAN". Others seem to think not. Check the manual?
