    The CM series of modems does NOT have wifi or built in router. 

    Odd to see wifi and parental controls on this page in the bottom picture. The first two pictures are correct and should be all that is seen for the CM1100 modem.

     

    Do you have a external router connected to the CM modem? Brand and model please.

     

    Be sure you clear out all browser caches before entering the modems web page.

Thank you for your reply.  Something you said got me thinking.   I set this up over a year ago and haven't had to touch it.  I mistakenly was thinking that the CM1100 was where the router changes (Access Control entries) were stored. I thought the cube looking hardware (the MR60) was just a signal extender.  There are two of these that came with the system.  Once I removed my head from my &$$ and performed a reset on the MR60 router it cleared out the entries for allowable devices.  I am now able to log in to the wireless network.   

 

You didn't give me the solution / answer but definitely  asked me the right question.  Thank you.  

My apologies for being an idiot.
