Gateway

–

Status Web Page Group

1.

Software

The information section shows the hardware and software information about your gateway.

The status section of this page shows how long your gateway has operated since last time being powered

up, and some key information the Cable Modem received during the initialization process with your cable

company. If Network Access shows “Allowed,” then

your cable company has configured your gateway to

have Internet connectivity. If not, you may not have Internet access, and should contact your cable

company to resolve this.

Password

By default, the username is empty (“”) and the password is “

admin

”.

This is set by different actions (non exhaustive list):

-

at the manufactory level,

-

following a reset factory on the modem,

-

following a reset from the operator,

-

following a change by the user who wants to come back to the default setting after using its own

settings

When the current password is the default one, the user is strongly encouraged to change the default web

password.

At your first connection or while the password is the default one, a warning message is displayed on the

top banner of each Web configuration page. We want to encourage you to change the password in order

to enforce the security of your modem.

The password can be a maximum of 8 characters and is case sensitive. In addition, this page can be used

to restore the gateway to its original factory settings. Use this with caution, as all the settings you have

made will be lost. To perform this reset, set

Restore Factory Defaults

to

Yes

and click

Apply

. This has

the same effect as a factory reset using the rear panel reset switch, where you hold on the switch for 5

seconds, then release it.

Note: We are always suggesting you to modify the password. This is a basic protection against wrongful

access to the Gateway Web pages.
