Model: Archer C20  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

My ISP has provided a modem in order to connect to the fiber cable, and now I am trying to figure out whether I should use wireless router mode or access point mode on the Archer C20 I am connecting to it for internet access. Keep in mind, the only purpose of the modem is to connect a router to it, I have no wired connections to the internet.

If the ZTE device is a bridge modem, you need to use router mode on the Archer C20.
