Solution
You may need to register your modem’s MAC address with your cable provider.
When your provider asks for your MAC address tell them the
CM MAC
address on
your Cable Modem/Router’s bottom label.
Restart your computer or other devices connected to the Cable Modem/Router. This
ensures that they receive a correct IP address from the router.
Problem
My computer/devices are not connecting wirelessly to the Cable Modem/Router.
Solution
Try the following:
Check the wireless security settings on the device not connecting to the router and
verify that your device is using the same wireless security and password as the
Cable Modem/Router. The default wireless settings can be found on the bottom
label of your router. These settings must match the settings on your device.
Check the signal strength of your wireless connection. Most wireless adapters have
some type of signal strength meter that shows how strong your wireless signal is.
