    I finally reset the M1 , I could not set the default gate way as 192.168.0.1 , it  only accept 192.168.1.4 , so I set it as 192.168.1.4

     

    Now it's working well and I can have access on it and no conflict with the other modem 

     

    Thanks John  and others for the support

The modem is on IP passthrough

 

What is that "other modem"? How is it connected to the net6work?

 

Your description suggests that you need to rethink what you are doing to avoid local clashes.

 

What is Double NAT? | Answer | NETGEAR Support

 

If your modem is one of the various Netgear M1 devices (MR1100?), it is not one of the General WiFi Routers (Non-Nighthawk and Non-Orbi) devices covered in this section.

 

While many questions about routers are generic and could be answered anywhere, some things need specialist knowledge.

You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:

Mobile Routers, Hotspots & Modems

Those things are very different from the standard Netgear routers covered in this section.

You might like to search there for messages related to your problem.

I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.

In the meantime you could visit the support pages:

Support | NETGEAR

Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.

Check for various troubleshooting tips.

You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.

I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.

    Hi , 

    Thanks for the answers 

     

    The other modem was either another M1 or a TP link , 

     

    I had both connected because one was connected to the internet and the other one was setting up to work on the internet. 

     

    But the problem is not there it's  way I cannot get to the admin web access

      Using 192.168.1.2 should be able to access the WebUI.

       

      Please connect the device using USB cable to your computer and check IPconfig whether IP gateway is set correctly to 192.168.1.2? The USB port IP address should be 192.168.1.4.

       

      Thanks

        Thanks John for your reply , 

         

        I did already my default gateway is 192.168.1.2 both USB or LAN,

         

         I tried all IP .4,.5,.6 just in case without success 

        Also with  different computers and systems, the web page still redirected and blocked. 

         

        I don't know if there is another way to read the M1 setting
