USE G36 ONLY AS WIFI ROUTER

I have to use a new cable modem and it doesn’t have a Wi-Fi router. Can I use my old G36 only for a Wi-Fi router, not a cable modem? TIA!!

g36 won't connect wirelessly to Canon Mx532

I just bought an Arris G36 and am running Mac OS Sonoma 14.5 ; the Canon Mx 532 printer asks for me to press the WPS button when searching for the access point. There is no button and the app does not have any way to go to WPS. Do I need a new printer? I don’t want to go backwards in my security or speed.

Cannot connect new G36 on SBC app

Attempting to set up my new G36 to my Cox cable. I have registered the device with Cox. I am connected with a solid blue light. I can't complete set up using the app. If I navigate to the 192.168.0.1 site, I can see a dashboard, but haven't got a password to log in. What in the heck am I doing wrong.

MAC ID not recognized (G34 on Xfinity)

I literally just got home from buying a G34 Cable Modem for my home Xfinity network. However, when I go to activate the modem in the Xfinity app (the only way to activate it), it tells me that the CM MAC ID is invalid (I’m using the HFC MAC ID). I’ve tried manually entering it AND using both QR codes from the insert and the sticker on the bottom of the modem. Same result. I contacted Arris support, and they told me the HFC MAC ID matches their records. They had me try to activate again, same result: invalid MAC ID. I also tried using the Surfboard app (not Surfboard Central). It, too, tells me that the HFC MAC ID is invalid. What am I doing wrong?

HP 840 g10 laptop slow connection with g36

My g36 typically runs well with no issues. I have recently been issued a hp 840 g10 laptop for work. I have Xfinity gig speed. The hp laptop is the only device running slow at about 30mbps and the speed is the same hardwired or on wifi for both the 5 and the 2.5 network. When I go to the office I get over 400mbps. I have done all the normal trouble shooting but can't seem to find a way to make the connection faster. When I plug the same ethernet cable into my ps5 I get over 500mbps. Please help?

G36 drops connection but light remains blue

I have a G36 I bought a little over two years ago that I use with Comcast. I haven't had any issues with the modem. The only previous issue with connections turned out to be a cable that got damaged by my neighbor. Comcast replaced the cable and all has been fine. Today it lost connection but the light was still blue. If I disconnect power and reconnect, it will work briefly but then drop connection again. I have 3 devices connected via ethernet and a bunch on WiFi. I've disabled WiFi with no change. I also disconnected each of the ethernet devices individually with no change. Comcast doesn't detect an outage in the area and their AI support says things look good to my modem. It can reset it successfully and see when it's not online if I disconnect it. Gateway FW version is [edit personal information] NCS Anything else to try? Hate to have to shell out for a new one when it's only a couple years old.

Unable to access the GUI webportal and SBC app

Seems like a recurring problem in the community security warning accessing the portal. Please provide help accessing the portal while the browser reports the SSL certificate is unsafe. What work around exists that is not beyond my technical capabilities! New box installation and have already had to work around the Surfboard Central App registration failure.

g34 error code 0002-1002, blinking blue and no internet

Just bought this g34 called Breezeline to activate it to our account. They’ve sent signals and resent signals. Still nothing. They said everything’s is working on their end. I have a blue blinking like on the front of the g36. When they send the signals over it does change the colors on the front from solid orange to slow blinking blue then solid green then blinking green to solid blue then fast blinking blue. Then the blue just stays blinking. The network name will pop up in our WiFi section but under it it says no internet connection. I’m willing to try anything.

G36 solid orange after power outage

Last night my power kept going in and out for about 5 minutes, then finally went out. When it came back on the modem stayed on solid orange. I have never had this happen before with other power outages. I have tried multiple times to unplug it for 30 seconds, 1 minute, over 10 minutes..still orange when I plug it back in. I have tried to hit the reset multiple times holding it for the 10-15 seconds as well as 30 seconds and nothing changes. I checked the warranty and I am good until July. How can I file a warranty claim?

Unable to login the GUI web portal from Firefox browser

Hello, the year is 2024 (almost 2025) and you still ship with a firmware that expects firefox v63 and does not work with firefox v127 The error is “browser not supported” on an android phone, and of course “invalid email address” on a desktop. That is rather grotesque as I am pretty sure I know my email address and it is the one I registered with Also current versions of MSoft edge (v126) have a warning of not being supported. Of course this will be ignored, which is a measure of the quality of your communications I hope that in 2025 you plan to at least support horse drawn carriages for returning the out-dated equipment you sell as new. As for firmware updates, I am hoping for at least cuneiform linear b. Thank you

Arris G36 no Wi-Fi connection

I can connect via ethernet to my laptop from my Arris 36, but I am unable to find the wifi signal. What am I doing wrong. I am replacing my old modem/router. I did the new setup via the comcast app but my phone wouldn't scan the tiny qr code on the bottom of my modem so I manually input the MAC number, but no wifi.

changing wifi name and password and unable to login SBC app on G36

I need to change the default Wi-Fi names and passwords for my G36 router. When I go to the ARRIS login page (192 168.0.1), my login credentials are generating “invalid” message. As other individuals have said, I can see all of my network info on the screen at the login screen, I just can’t modify any of it because my email and password created through the app are not recognized. The new SURFboard Central Manager app on my Android mobile phone is absolutely useless. I’m able to get all the way through to the final step where the the Wi-Fi “should” be configured. But I continuously receive error messages that the Wi-Fi network can’t be configured. I’ve unplugged all the cords from the device. I’ve reset the device. I’ve uninstalled the SURFboard Central Manager app from my phone, cleared the data and cache, and reinstalled the app. I’ve reviewed instructions through ARRIS’ Customer Care site for the G36 device. Nothing is helpful in solving the problem of not being able to access the Wi-
