Can't access N450 (CG3000Dv2) Router GUI
Hello, I just got my new mediacom internet hooked up and cannot get my wifi to work. When I plug into the modem/router with a cat5 i get internet, but I can't connect anything via wifi. I have it turned on, well the light is on on the front.
when I type 192.168.0.1 on chrome or IE, the connection times out and I cannot get to the router GUI.
When I type ipconfig in cmd my default gateway is 173.31.128.1
any help is much appreciated!

ok, I got into the GUI using 192.168.100.1
my techie friend says that my modem is connected directly to the internet (no firewall) and that the modem/router is not in NAT mode. when in the GUI if I check the "enable NAT" box and apply, the modem reboots and there is no change. I have done this a few times with no luck. I have also done factory resets with no change.
any idea why the NAT won't stay enabled? - bigbruiseAspirant
old post I know...but I'm trying to set this same model in bridge mode and don't see it in the router settings. can you direct me to a page with instructions on setting this model in bridge mode?

Hello bigbruise
There is no bridge mode on this modem but you can try to disable the DHCP server which is Located in the LAN Ip under advanced. this should allow it to be just a AP.
