    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

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

      USB default IP must be 192.168.1.4, which is set on FW and can't be changed. If you change the gateway IP to 192.168.10.1, USB IP will be 192.168.10.4.

       

      Make sure when you change the default gateway, the LAN IP range is also updated accordingly.

       

      Thanks

      John

        I like this path 

         

        I did change my default gateway when I had the chance to reach the M1 setting I change it to 192.168.1.2 because it was conflicting with my other modem 

         

        So which IP I will use now  ?
