Glad the replacement worked.
Ya, It will be up to the ISP to support model modems on there mid split or higher speed tiers. All up them.
Probably not. I'll check and see if I can find out what happened.
Please mark your thread as solved so others will know.
Enjoy.

Try this, since you have the CM disconnected from the ISP now. Try a 30-30-30 reset on the modem. Need a stopwatch to do this. With the modem plugged in and powered on, depress the reset button for 30 seconds. This button is usually a tiny dot recessed into the back of the router. You may need a jeweler's screwdriver or a bent paperclip to access it.
While still holding down the button, unplug the router from its power source for another 30 seconds.
With the reset button still held down, turn the power back on and hold for another 30 seconds.
After releasing, let the modem process for about 1 minute. Have one ethernet connected PC.
See if you can access the modems web page at 192.168.100.1 in a web browser.
If you can't, then the modem is bad.

I left it unplugged all night. Today I tried this 30 30 30 reset and it didn't do anything. Tried it a few hours later and nothing. All the modem does is flast flash the MultiGig light that is in the center
