SB8200

Are there any plans to release a new firmware for the sb8200 on Comcast to support mid split?

Hey so my modems Ethernet ports are not both active. I have 2 PCs plugged in and only one is registering a connection even they are both hardwired Ethernet into the same modem. I just got off the phone with Comcast and they said it was a manufacturing issue? Any help and support would be great. 

Just bought a used SB8200 on eBay from a reputable seller.  I tried to provision it with my Wow ISP via a phone conversation.  The rep said that there is an error “equipment must be in a special status to add it”.  She said it was locked.  I did a factory reset.  Connected it directly to a laptop without internet and logged into the modem.  I was able to change the default password to a new one.  Tried to provision again by swapping it with my old SB6183 and calling the ISP.  Same error.  While trying to provision, I can access the modem web page through my router but the username and password doesn’t work.  As soon as I take it off the cable and router and connect to my laptop directly, the username and password I created works. When putting my system back to the SB6183, they had to re-provision it to make it work (proving they removed that modem while trying to provision the SB8200).We have verified the MAC address multiple times. Is there anything I can do on

Trying to determine if the refurbished modem I just bought from Amazon is the problem for extremely slow speeds or if the modem is bad. Following steps I found in FAQs, I got the attached results but I’m too confused to make sense of it. 

How can I reset my modem SB8200? I moved from one address to another.

Xfinity called regarding Modem not having enough Fire Wall protection. What do I need to do?

I found steps to do thisbut when I connect my laptop directly to the modem and launch Firefox, my computer can’t find the internet. It is setup for a WiFi connection via the router. What do I do?

So out of nowhere, the Arris SB8200 on my desk yesterday, goes from blue light on DOWNLOAD to green and my speeds plummet from 1,000 meg download to 5 meg.  I of course call my ISP - Breezeline. They say I need the firmware update, but since I own the modem, they can’t do it. Come to the Arris site and it says the firmware updates are with your ISP.  For 2 straight days, I am being told that Breezeline can’t do the firmware since I own the modem and to get Arris to do it only to be told by Arris on the phone - that wants to CHARGE ME for the help since I’ve owned the modem for 14 months, says that Breezeline can do the firmware for me. I tried to factor reset the modem, did the admin and last 8 digits of the serial number but it won’t log in.  Breezeline is charging me $75 for a technician to come out and advised me to BUY a new router, which the tech visit is more than half the cost of the modem.  I feel pretty s

Video of when all the lights appear to be working , and then it restarts : https://imgur.com/a/tetTSa6Is it overheating?  I haven’t been able to login into the modem to see if it’s working, via direct Ethernet 192.168.100.1 it’s been 24 hours since I gave the MAC address to my ISP, I’ve tried all the basic troubleshooting steps to no avail.

My SB8200 modem appears to be no longer allowing me to access my work VPN.  The internet works otherwise.  I originally thought this was an issue with my work computer; but, on troubleshooting with my work IT, we determined that wasn’t the issue (I was even given a new computer, which did not resolve the problem).  I then thought it might be an internet provider issue; but, on contacting my internet provider (RCN), they rebooted my connection among other potential correctives, and determined the issue wasn’t coming from their end.  Both my work IT and internet provider suggested this was likely a modem issue. Additional context:  I haven’t done anything to my modem (I have not touched it) before the issue arose.  I restarted my modem after the issue arose; that did not correct the issue.  This issue just started one morning and has been going on for two weeks now.  I am able to log into my VPN through other internet sources not linked to my modem (e.g., phone hotspot).

Set up the Arris8200 with Xfinity Internet coax, plugged network cable to a port on the Arris8200i am able to get an IP from arris, however, the IP is an external routable IP,  there does not seem to be configured a LAN, internal only IP which I would have expected  I cannot access 192.168.100.1, as the IP I have been allocated looks to be directly from Xfinity, and I am unable to add anything to the second network port on the back of the Arris8200 as the DHCP looks to be provided direct from Xfinity how can I get to configure the Arris8200 when it appears to be not doing its own DHCP for an internal network but rather passing DHCP from Comcast? I requested help from Comcast who said to contact Arris directly for help…  

Hi All, I bought a SB8200 a year ago but after 8 months of operation it stopped working and even through a reset and reboot it no longer would activate with xfinity’s network. I have an older sb6141 so I plugged that in and was able to activate back with xfinity no problem. I got an RMA for the sb8200 and recieved a new sb8200 and was able to activate the new rma sb8200. That replaced SB8200 lasted about 11 months this time but now same thing happened and it no longer recieves signal to activate on the xfinity network. I had a comcast tech come out and check the line everything is fine and I plugged back in my sb6141 I had laying around and it works. I went to rma the SB8200 again but am being informed that’s not possible by support because “this is the processes we need to follow there is no option to provide you another replacement”. Why can’t I get an RMA for this clearly defective unit? Why does the sb8200 stop working after one year of ope

Mine is the SB8200 model. Yesterday I could access the “web manager” through my computer which has a router and a switch in between the modem. I called the support line and he tried to tell me I had to have a computer connected to the modem directly (I don’t think this is true as I did it yesterday, not directly connected). The line went, it might have been me, I get a lousy signal at my house (thanks tmble)  One problem, that seemed not to be an issue yesterday. Is that my home network is 10.0.0.0/24 not the 192.168. I’m not a networking expert, but if it worked yesterday… what changed. I’m not comfortable, that the providers only authorize certain equipment. The “manager” doesn’t let you do anything but view … which is something...but for a device that I own, is much less than I would expect. Especially in this newer model. I hope that my provider doesn’t have too much control over the modem. Because it’s only been “activated/provisioned” a short time,

Is the model number still support by Arris? We are using it with COX and have had nothing, but lag and I read that Arris no longer supports this model. 

I just purchased the SB8200 modem for my work computer.   Installation & activation through Xfinity seemed to go well.  All lights on the modem are doing what they should, & my computer indicates that I’m connected to the internet, but I can’t access anything on the internet….  I called ARRIS tech support, but no help…Any ideas for a simple solution before I return this thing??Thanks!

My surfboard 8200 never came with an SSID label. How do I get that?

Purchased the sbg8200 today... isp got me access to the internet... however my led for online is not green... constantly white. Help

MY SB8200 will not power up the front lights when plugged in.   The Modem was working, and then stopped after a storm.   the cable tech said the modem was inoperative and installed a replacement modem.   I am looking to get the SB8200 replaced under warranty and the ruckus website says the S/N does not exist, but it exists on the arris website.How do I get a replacement modem under warranty?Thanks!

All product descriptions I’ve seen say this below. Is this device compatible with Windows 11? Compatible operating systems: 4. Windows 10 5. Windows 8 6. Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (SP1) Note: Although older versions of Microsoft Windows operating systems are no longer specifically supported, they should still function with your SB8200

After I installed the modem last weekend the even log shows that the modem will not update the firmware.I go to the web page on the modem using the 192.168.100.1 address, no issue.speed has been good, speed test shows 300 to 200mb download.There is no update firmware link, or check for latest updates?I noticed the firmware log shows that it is unable to update firmware. The software writers will need to test their code to find out why it shows it is corrupted on the end modem side.Here is the log snippet of 2 occurrences: 4/9/2023 17:32:15    5    REG-RSP-MP Mismatch Between Calculated Value for P1.6hi Compared to CCAP Provided Value;CM-MAC=1c:...;CMTS-MAC=00:01….;CM-QOS=1.1;CM-VER=3.1;14/9/2023 17:32:21    6    SW Download INIT - Via Config file14/9/2023 17:32:21    4    SW upgrade Failed after download -Incompatible SW file14/9/2023 17:32:21    4    SW upgrade Failed after download - SW File corruption15/9/20

Cox has no idea why I am not getting their signal from your modem to my computer via the ethernet connected to port 2, or to Google nest connected in Port one. Please help thanks

The 3rd light from the top (send signal light) is flashing green while the top 2 are solid green. I cannot get any internet connection on any device. How can I fix this? I’ve tried unplugging everything and a hard reset.
