VPN into home network with C7000
I bought the C7000 recently, which I believed was an R7000 paired with a cable modem. Works great and I get excellent speed. I saw that the R7000 is able to set up a vpn server, but the c7000 seems to be lacking that option. So what gives? Am I missing something or is it just not possible to do with this model? Thanks for your help!
24 downstream channel bonding Netgear C7000 / Nighthawk AC1900 Cable Modem Router combo
Hi, I got the new Netgear C7000 (Nighthawk AC1900 cable modem - wifi router combo) as Netgear claimed it can bond with 24 downstream channels, hence better surfing experience. I had old C6300 that has 16x4 bonding, this one has 24x8. However, after I activated new modem, it still bonds 16 down and 4 up, instead of 24 down and 8 up. I called TWC, they say its Netgear issue. Called Netgear, they did not even understand initially what channel bonding is, the very point on which they are selling this modem and were of no help - they asked me to talk to TWC again!! I called TWC again this morning, they said this modem should bond with 24 channels - Note I am on the100 Mbps plan (am already getting 118 Mbps down, thanks TWC, am very satisfied customer). I personally think, a 16x4 modem can be fine with over 500mbps package as well, if TWC introduces it in future. I did factory reset on the C7000 router, still it was bonding 16x4.This is such a sham. Can someone help in advising how to allow 24 channel bonding for downstream channels.Unable to set up MoCa with new Modem/Router
I have a whole home Tivo Bolt + that I have set up with MoCa. I previous had Mediacoms DVR system and when I got the new one it worked right out the box. But when I returned the Mediacom router/modem today and bought the Nighthawk it stopped working. Is it compatible with MoCa because I cannot get my Tivo Mini's to connect to the internet at all. The tivo just keeps telling me it cannot connect to my router. So wasn't sure if I had to change a setting or if the model I bought won't work with that feature. I even tried the Ethernet + MoCa and keep getting issues with Mini not finding internet. I spent over an hour on the phone with Tivo Support and they couldn't figure it out either. Internet speeds are perfect and no issues connecting to wifi. Just didn't know if it's a setting issue or if I cannot use MoCa with this. Tivo said Bolt+ can make it's own MoCa, so I should be able to do this. Any suggestions or info?C7000 Initial Channel Locking
I got a c7000 from someone that had upgraded to something newer, as far as I know it had been working. When trying to set it up with Comcast, they said they could see it, the self activate seems to work, when they sent reset codes to it, it lost downstream and upstream and attempted to re-aquire. However I never get an active connection, and they never see it as connected. When I go to the cable connection page, it says "Failure Your modem is offline. Please check the RF connection." Then, "Click Here to go to setting...". That link takes me to a very interesting page, showing 24 downstream and eight upstream channels, with only the first of each locked in. Even more interestingly, when the device is restarted it always starts at channel ID 31 at 687000000 Hz, power - 2.1 dBmV, SNR 40.9, which are all good values, but if I refresh the page every few minutes, the downstream channel that is locked in moves down one channel and by 6000000 Hz. Upstream does not appear to change, although I believe it has been different between different restarts. Also near the top of the page there is a startup procedure list: Aquire downstream channel, it reflects the current one locked in as described above; connectivity state, in progress params transfer complete; boot state, in progress unknown; security, disabled; ip provisioning mode, in progress unknown. I will try to post a pic, but I'm working off of my phone currently and the mobile interface is lacking attachmentsC7000 Nighthawk Parental Control not working by specific device
I have the C7000 Comcast cable modem router and have the genie app installed on my mac and iphone 6plus. I can set the global parental control for any user through opendns but I am not able to set configure device specific web content filtering from the network map in the genie app. The app shows the device is configured to high to block video sharing but I'm still able to get to youtube and espn. Anyone solve this?AC1900 Nighthawk reboots same exact time every day
I installed a new ac1900 dual band and it looses internet (both 2.4 and 5 signals) everyday at 12:55. The only thing I can see is that is loses the locks on both down and upstream channels. It comes back up about 10 minutes later. Comcast keeps resending a provisioning file which seems to help, although after about 10 min the router comes back on its own so that re-provisioning solution might be conincidental. I am on Firmware Version V1.01.23, I am not losing power, it impacts all devices, wired and wireless. Comcast says they don't 'see' any service interruption. Just started with this router. Anyone have suggestions? I can't see a scheduled daily reboot option anywhere, is there one?
