2. Manage and Monitor
After you set up the cable modem, you do not need to log in to the cable modem for normal
operation. However, you can log in to the cable modem to change a very limited number of
settings and monitor the cable modem. In the unlikely situation that you experience problems
with the cable connection and cannot get an Internet connection, technical support might ask
you to log in to the router.
