3rd Party Router with Telus Modem Bridging + Optik TV?

Getting gigabit fibre installed this weekend, but hoping to use our own enterprise-grade networking equipment.  My understanding is that the telus modem can be put into bridge mode, but how do I connect the wired and wireless Optik TV boxes?

    You will need to connect the TVs to the Telus device, either to LAN 2 to 4 or the Wi-Fi SSID.

      NFtoBC This makes sense, but if the Telus modem is in bridge mode, will it still be broadcasting a wireless signal?

        Yes, bridging port 1 does not affect the function of the rest of the modem.
