G54 not showing connected devices

I recently set up a G54 Modem/router in Xfinity without issue. Devices started connecting right away and I have no connection issues. However, Connected devices do not appear either on the app or web page. My Asus wifi7 router showed everything, This shows nothing.  Any idea how to get devices to appear in the connected list?

G54 - Compatible with OOMA and ring camera

I assume from the product webpage that this is not compatible with ooma (digital voice).  Please verify this. Is it compatible with Ring Cams (voice also)?  Alexa”  Hue Hub? For those that have purchased this, are there any issues with it?

G54 Unable to go above 1Gbps on Cox

My new G54 WiFi 7 cable modem router is unable to connect above 1Gbps. Cox has listed in their documentation as G54 802.11AX modem and no setting within their system will allow modem to work above 1Gbps. If box/documentation says compatible with Cox, Charter/Spectrum, or Xfinity, is that only compatible at 1Gbps or 2Gbps?

G54 won't connect to Altice Optimum Internet

We tried all we could and Optimum even sent out a tech and he said they were getting numerous errors while activating the G54 internet . He said they finally got it successfully activated but the modem for a few seconds flashed a solid blue then green light and flashing green light ever since and hasn’t connected to the internet yet. I can get into the Surfboard central app features of the modem by continuing the install process without internet but that's it.

New G54, previously working well, now some site won't load, others VERY slow

Newly bought G54 and service with Spectrum. Initially was working very well. Today, many websites can not load and others are dial up slow. Spectrum of course bounces this to Arris as there appears to be some service and feel its no longer their problem. They insisted for a hard reset as some channels are not working correctly and Arris would be better suited for fixing this. What is ACTUALLY the problem and what is a step by step process on how to remedy it, without getting bounced back and forth.

Arris G54 Feedback/Performance

I’ve been using the Arris G54 and the Netgear RBE973S to test WIFI 7 and just wanted to provide some feedback on how the Arris performs so far. Its not a fair comparison as the Netgear has a few extra features/performance specs. Overall, its performance has been excellent. I have a 3200sq ft home and with it centrally located, it covers the whole home. I’m running around 60+ devices overall (40+ wireless) and I’ve had no issues or bandwidth concerns. I do have all but 1 of my 4k tv’s hardwired in because I prefer that for streaming. I do have the 10g port connected through a 2.5gig tp-link switch and it doesn’t have any issues saturating it. While the Netgear is faster on the peripheral (because of the satellites), the Arris keeps up in closer range and even will beat it on some tests. I’ve been able to saturate my multi-gig speeds over wireless. So if you have a mid-sided home, this should cover it great if you centrally locate it. What I like: I like having the extra features in the

G54 WIFI/Bridgemode/1Gig ethernet ports/2.5multiswitch/ HELP!!

Help,Im a Cox Cable user, going from the panoramic V8 (best modem they offer) to the now G54.I would like a solution or other options about the way the Ethernet ports work in the back.,First question: I left the cox modem because when in bridge mode only one port works. Im hoping thats not the case with the G54?2nd question: if in fact, this is the same situation… What do i do now to get my current Google Pro 6e wifi mesh system at speeds faster than just 100-200 MGPS?? I run my fast ethernet port to my 2.5 multiswitch to direct connect 2 laptops and 2 xbox systems. All of which will hit 2-2.3Gigs of speed. Problem now is i have no ports left over from Modem. i even tried using a port from the switch. Neither was a success. I spoke with Google and Cox and couldnt get them both on the same page and were of no help, both said to do opposite things.3rd question: Does Arris modems offer a way to turn off there WIFI only? this way im not running into “double NAT” situations. This is Googles

G54 needs newer firmware. Xfinity blaming Arris.

G54 shows to have firmware AC01.01.015_051923_G5X.04.20.121  trying to get Xfinity to update on their end but they blame Arris saying the file should be here somewhere. This one is on their “enhanced network speeds” list so it should work but I believe the firmware is the holdback. Any thoughts or help would be appreciated.

Photos getting corrupted while image transferring in G54

I’m suddenly having photos on my remote drive showing up as corrupted with distortion and lines running through them. These images are transferred between my MacBook Pro and the Synology Raid via WiFi. The image can look fine on my computer but as soon as it’s transferred to the drive, it is corrupted. Or an image on the drive can look fine but then when I reopen it a few minutes later, it is corrupted. I suspect the G54 is causing this. How can I test for it and fix it?
