Here’s a quick guide on how to set your Prolink Hurricane 5200 Modem/Router to bridge mode (modem only).

1. Reset your modem by holding the reset button at the back of the device for 1-2 minutes.

2. Open your modem/router GUI by going to this address http://192.168.1.1

username: admin
password: password

3. Remove your old account by going to WAN settings and clicking the trash icon right next to your account username. (Skip this part if you don’t have one yet).

4. Create a new account in WAN configuration by applying the following settings:

VPI: 0
VCI: 35 (for Globe broadband)

5. Change the encapsulation to Bridge 1483

6. Check if the account is enabled

7. Go to DHCP page and disable DHCP

8. Go to Routing page and disable routing

9. Commit and Reboot

I’m thinking of a step 10 but I think that should do. Don’t forget to change your router IP to 192.168.2.1 (Linksys routers) then select PPOE as your type of connection. Provide your ISP username and password to start browsing. Good luck!
