Cannot log into 192.168.0.1, times out

I recently setup my Modem (SBG8300) to bridge-mode, and now I cannot get to the modems admin page.I can get to the page sometimes. Itll load maybe 1 out of every 10 times, but I cannot get past the login page (192.168.0.1/login.php). I’ll get a page that says “this site can’t be reached”..Any ideas?

SBG8300 - drops internet connection and I have to reboot once a week

I have an SBG8300 modem/router connected to Cox cable.  Last year it was working completely fine.  Then I moved it to a new house - same Cox cable - but had to buy an aftermarket power cord from Amazon.Now the internet drops once a week and I have to reboot the modem (unplug and plug it back in) in order to get connectivity back up and running.Any ideas?  Is the unit overheating?  Is the aftermarket power cord causing issues?  The modem/router is roughly 1.5 years old and for several months, wasn’t even being used.Thanks!

Need help getting Warranty replacement

5 months ago my brother-in-law purchased an Arris SBG8300 Modem/Router, which he understood would eliminate a monthly rental fee from Cox Cable.  He has issues communicating so I advocate for him.The Arris Modem/Router worked fine for about a month and then started to degrade as far as buffering. When we called Arris Customer Support, we were told the problem was how Cox Cable set up the Modem/Router.My brother-in-law then had a Cox technician come over.  After several tests, the technician concluded there was nothing wrong with the internet, that the buffering was in fact the Modem/Router.We then called Arris customer support back and was told to change some settings in the Modem/Router via the computer.  The changes made no difference in the what was now constant buffering. When we called again, a different Arris customer service person would suggest the same settings as before.My brother-in-law then took the Modem/Router back to Best Buy, but was told he was past the return time, an

Why can't Windows connect to a custom network name?

We just bought the SBG8300 modem. I changed the network name from the factory setting of SBGnnnnnn to a custom network name and pw which is easier to remember and type in. My Mac connected to it with no problem, but the two PCs in the house always rejected the password. We finally had to select the secondary (guest) network with the unchanged network name and password.   Why can’t the Windows computers connect to our custom-named network?

2.4 GHz keeps dropping on SBG8300

I tried switching to manual selection of 1,6 or 11 and all of them are not stable either.I moved many of wifi appliances to 5 GHz (which is very stable) as I thought there were too many appliances on 2.4 GHz.  It helped for couple of weeks, but now it started dropping again.Is there limit to how many appliance I can connect to 2.4 GHz?

I have SBG8300  router from my ISP.  I generally login to their router page to enable wi-fi ( normally it is in disabled mode). By mistake I clicked  Bridge mode button though I don’t even know what the bridge mode is.  Now I can’t login to the http://192.168.100.1 at all.   The browser URL shows https://192.168.100.1/wizard_step1.php  and runs for ever.  How will I be able to login to router settings.  I appreciate any help. internet is working normally. But whatsapp message refresh is taking forever saying  “Wiating for this message. This may take  a while Learn More “ .

My SBG8300 Ethernet ports stopped working after I put it in bridgemode

I own an SBG8300 but recently bought a new router that provided better Wi-Fi coverage so I put it in bridge mode so I wouldn’t have two Wi-Fi signals broadcasting.  When I did that however, I noticed that the ethernet ports stopped working.  When I disabled bridge mode from the SBG8300 the ethernet ports started working again.  Does anyone know of a work around for this?
