Netgear CM1000
I bought the CM1000 off eBay and It seems to be dead.
The modem is constantly blinking power (green), downstream(amber), upstream(amber), internet(amber), and solid amber network.
Is this dead ...

Since you purchased the CM1000 from ebay, do you have any information if this modem used to another cable company? Once the cable modem installed to a previous ISP, the modem has a customer FW.
So once the modem has been flashed by one company's fw, then it won't take another company's fw?

Hi kylaris,
Check the Cable modem status by accessing the default IP address 192.168.0.1.
The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
Click the ADVANCED tab. The ADVANCED Home page displays information about your cable modem
Check the Firmware Version installed.

The manual says the default IP address is 192.168.100.1. Is that incorrect?

Oops my mistake :). The Correct IP address 192.168.100.1.

I connected my computer directly to the modem and set my computer's IP address to 192.168.100.2. The modem doesn't respond.

Can you ping the cable modem IP address?
- dem107Feb 05, 2019Aspirant
I can't ping it. It doesn't seem like the interface on the modem is up at all. My computer doesn't even show a working Ethernet connection.
