internet drops off

<< < (3/3)

Am I better off with a gateway or a modem with my router? I was dropping off but it may have been my router.
Comcast gave me an Arris gateway and thank goodness I remembered about 'admin' and "password".
After browsing I found the way to enter was http://HTTP://10.0.0.1.
When entered, it said I have weak security. I clicked upon moderate and it said it does not take HTTP commands.
I also clicked upon the wizard but it would not respond.
Comcast does not know its own product so we are left to figure it out.
Are there any suggestions you can give me to figure this out so I have decent security and a new password?
Thank you
Peter

Shane:
Security for what, the wireless or the router?

If it is for the router dont worry about it, people can only log into it if they are on your network.

And your old router may have had the problem, if the new one from them is working then stick with it :wink:

I have figured out what Comcast never told me and secured the Gateway.
Thank you for the help.
