If I put the Comcast Xfinity router into Bridge mode to have my NETGEAR as the wireless router, can I still use all the ethernet ports to connect other devices to the Comcast Xfinity router/modem or does making this bridge limit me to 1 ethernet port?

Bridge mode makes the router into a modem. All routing features are probably disabled along with all but the first LAN/ethernet port.

Probably need to "google" your specific router model and dig into the details per se. The manufacturer's FAQ's/forum may confirm.

However, you can always just try it. Go into bridge mode, set things up, and then try the various LAN/ethernet ports....
