I think he's referencing the NG cable modem which is probably a C series gatway router modem already. So if this is the case, then they just need to configure the modem for modem only mode. Which would be the first step in solving problems.
C6300v2 is tne modem router. I so appreciate everyone trying to help
Go into the modems configuration and under Advanced tab/Advanced settings should be Mode or Router mode? Options maybe Yes or No. Select No and apply the setting. This will change the configuration of the modem to Modem only mode. When this happens I would power OFF the RBR for 30 seconds then power back ON. RBR should connect and show GOOD under Internet status on the RBRs web page.
