Access to Cable modem and settings

The cable modem all connected and working but I don't want to have a computer connected by ethernet cable inorder to access the cable modem settings. When the computer is disconnected from the ethernet cable and all other computers are closed or shut-down then when they are open and operating I an no longefr access the cable modem settings.  What do I do to correct this situation?

Model: C3700|N600 Cable Gateway Docsis 3.0

Hello Rollin

 

Have you tried to use different web browsers when accessing the Gui? also have you tried to access it using 192.168.0.1 or http://www.routerlogin.com/?

Are you sure you are trying to access modem? Isn't it router you are talking about?

Your unit is cable modem/router combo. What are you tryig to do with modem?

Re: Access to Cable modem and settings

Have tried everyone of those solutions to no avail.  My current question is this, does a computer need to be connected to the modem by ethernet cable?  Because I can't leave a computer connected to the cable modem by ethernet.  Does anyone have a answer to being connected to the cable modem.

 

Thanks,

Re: Access to Cable modem and settings

You keep saying modem, what you are trying to do with modem? As I mentioned earlier I am wondering you mean router. Again your unit is modem/router combo. You can remove the Ethernet cable but then you have to have a wireless connection to access Intternet.  . Is your concern about security?
