IP Address
I believe the router ip should be 192.168.1.1 - I cant ping it 192.168.100.1 requests a login and password 192.168.4.1 I can ping and I believe it was setup to go to specific DNS and take me to NEX...
every day is more confusing than the last. The box says CM1200 Cable Modem.
When I click on Systems Settings, Wi-FI, Details, TCP/IP, Router IP 192.168.4.1
So I am very sure this is not what I want. Right now it winds up going to NextDNS
I really do not know how to fix this
What kind of router do you have connected that betwen the CM modem and your PC? That 192.168.4.1 address is coming from a router, not the CM modem.
Look at the first page here where it says "Connect a Router"

Is how and what you should be connecting to the CM modem.
OK CM1200 is located on the second floor, connected to xfinity (wireless, tv)
Also on the second floor with a eero connected to CM1200
On the first floor with have another eero and a DVR for recording
2 MAC's running Sonoma and a lightly used PC running Windows 10
This "Eero" system probably or should be a host router. I believe most Eero systems have a base router and satellites.
Something to go and chat with the Eero folks about use and configuration of there products.
Good Luck.Yes, I checked the EERO system and there it is 192.168.4.1
I had 2 Xfininty modems and not enough bandwidth, switched to the CM1200. He was installing TV's and he programed the CM1200.
I thank you for your help, you seem to be leaving me.
My **bleep** is with the person that installed NextDNS not being able to remove it.
I have installed Telephone systems for a living and I have never had a router issue. Even in the very old days when having a 300 baud modem.
I expect that Comcast/Century Link will be installing fiber/cable in this area and of course I will want that as well. Should be interesting getting both of them and there hardware.
