Im just going to say this:
- Thank you to everyone who helped and for your advice
- the device is like 5-6 old at this point and the brand has trouble with my current isp.

So i tried to factory reset the device again and i couldn't see a step to register or login during the initial set up. It just has me set the admin password then just skips right into the dashboard. Its only after I try to get back into te dashboard that all this happens.

What happens if you disconnect the ISP coax cable from the modem.
Then press the reset button for 10-15 seconds then release.
Give about 5 minutes, then with a ethernet connected PC and web browser (MS-Edge or Firefox), try to access the modems web page at 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1?
If you can get there to the setup wizard page, see if you can complete the setup wizard process, skipping any items that you can to get to the home screen, then reconnect the ISP coax cable.
