Support, contact sales

If I purchase a new modem, can I call and get support? It’s too bad the company doesn’t even have a sales phone number!!!

Can't sign into modem

I have been trying to sign into my router and the username and password listed on the bottom of it does not work. I also can’t find it online. On the bottom it says it’s a Technicolor CVA4004TCH1. It’s not even listed on the Technicolor website. The only search results I get for “technicolor cva4004” appear to be either fake malicious websites or a website called cox that doesn’t tell me anything relevant. When I go to the address that’s listed right above the username and password, it brings up a page that says technicolor DOCSIS 3.1 Cable Modem, but again, the login does not work. I’ve searched the internet for an hour now and have found no solution.

Reseting router and reestablishing SSIDs

I need to reset my router. Once done and I reestablish my SSIDs exactly as they were before the reset will my devices automatically recognize them and reconnect since the names are the same and passwords hadn’t changed?

SB6121 Modem with intermittent drops on Internet vb

Our Internet speed of 200 Mbps has been dropping recently even after virtual resets by Internet provider and physical resetting modem and router by me. Internet is now routinely popping up and stating "Unstable Connection". Everything looks fine according to our internet provider, so not sure what is causing the drops in service. Could this be my modem? It's at least nine years old, but I'm not sure how to problem solve possible modem issues. My Netgear Nighthawk router is virtually new and similar ratings as the last one that died on me not long ago.

Cannot change name or password due to Access denied

I have an Arris Wifi Router Modem combo, Model Number DG3450. My 2.5Ghz and 5Ghz wifi connections have the same Name and Password all of a sudden and I need them to be different so I can connect to different devices. When I try to change the name and Password of the 2.5 and 5 ghz Wifi network it gives me an access denied yet I am logged into my router, it just gives me the access denied when i try editing the name or password of ether? How would I fix this, anything helps?

Network and Password sb6121

In order to get a service from Xfinity I would need el Network Namen and Pasword of my modem. Given that the modem is Motorotola I asked them about that. Motorola sent me an email telling: “Based on the MAC address provided, the device appears to be an Arris modem. The older Motorola modems, the Surfboards, were manufactured by them. Please reach out to Arris's customer support for further assistance with addressing the issue you're experiencing with your modem: https://arris.my.salesforce-sites.com/consumers/ConsumerProductSupport.” The information printed on the bottom label:of the modem is: SURFboard Model: SB6121 Thank you.

Connection losses about 4-5 times daily-

Hello, I work from home using ethernet directly into the modem (hard wired) and have been having several intermittent connectivity issues. System stall, and the modem losses internet connection. My work tech support says it's my provider. My internet provider says it's my modem. What is the life of a modem? I think mine is about 4 years old. And, what are the signs /symptoms that indicate my modem is going bad?
