Try a factory reset with the CM modem disconnected from the ISP coax cable. Can you log in then?
Does your ISP own this modem or is this modem a bought modem?

I own the modem. tried the reset. didnt correct issue. i just read about perhaps some active x is blocking it. not the case. i am totally stumped.
