Unfortunately I had to go out of town for work and have not had the ability to pull the model # of my surfboard cable modem.
I will be home this evening to pull this, however it seems odd that my laptop connected directly to the Nighthawk would pass traffic out to the internet, and back in again to bring up the web interface on a 192.168.1.1 device does it not?
When I get home this evening, I will test out a direct ethernet connection to the Nighthawk and disconnect the LAN cable from the cable modem to insure this isnt happeneing and see if the login works and report back.
