Where is the ADSL Line Sync status on R7000
As the Title says, ive got to be missing it even though it seems like ive looked everywhere. i can't find the ADSL line sync page? :smileyfrustrated:
- Sep 02, 2015Are you sure you have a R7000? It doesn't have an ADSL modem. It's a pure router.
You may have a D7000. In that case the ADSL stats should be on the "show statistics" page reachable from the Advanced home page.

The default IP address used by the nb604n is 192.168.1.1. The R7000 uses the same address by default. You should change the R7000 to use a different IP subnet. Log into the R7000 and change its LAN IP address to 192.168.2.1 and click Apply. The devices connected to the R7000 will need to obtain new IP addresses, so either reboot or disconnect and reconnect them physically.
Confirm that you can log into the R7000 by either going to routerlogin.net or 192.168.2.1. If that works, then try connecting to the modem at 192.168.1.1.
If that still doesn't work then try connecting a computer directly to the modem thru one of its Ethernet interfaces and retry 192.168.1.1 or whatever IP address is listed as the default gateway by your computer. Alternatively, connect to the modem's Wi-Fi network, provided that it is still enabled. Then, connect to 192.169.1.1 or default gateway as before.
If, after all, you still can't log into the modem, then rpoffen may be right that the modem cannot be accessed once it is switched to bridge mode. You may just have to live without knowing the DSL link stats.
As a last resort, you can reset the modem to factory defaults by pressing the reset button. According to the nb604n user guide, hold it down for 3 seconds. This should revert the modem back to router mode. You should then beer able to log in and check the line stats. Then, enable bridge mode. It's painful but it should work.

Hey, I plugged one of my pcs directly into the Modem and got an ip which worked thank you!
However i tried to get onto this ip without being connected directly to the modem and it didn't work. I am on two different lans right?

Yes, the modem is still maintaining a LAN for directly connected devices and is separate from the LAN behind your router. As I mentioned before, you should insure that your router is using a separate IP subnet than the one maintained by the modem. For example, if the IP address you obtained while plugged in directly to the modem was 192.168.1.X, then you need to reconfigure your router to 192.168.2.1. Once you do this, you should be able to reach the modem from behind the router.

Hello, I changed my Routers IP to the 192.168.2.X network however i still can't reach the modem.
