Looks like it.I think its just a modem.. It's an a Motorola MB8611
I'm out of ideas. Hopefully some other MB8611 owners can chime in.Set to Automatic IP... but the WAN IP in Network Map -> WAN IP is my public IP address
Same issue with RT-AC5300 . It's not accepting the route configuration from the cable modem
SOLUTION: Add a static route
- Network / Host IP = 192.168.100.1
- Netmask = 255.255.255.255
- Gateway = 0.0.0.0 (shows as * in system routing table once saved)
- Metric = 1 (default)
- Interface = WAN
- Add delete = click (+) to add before saving
Testing
- 1. : Ping from router
- target host = 192.168.100.1
- Test from browser

I tried this. It didn't work and didn't show up in my routing table. I did turn it on. I would prefer this so it doesn't stop working like the previous one that used the wan ip. I didn't try that one.

This worked to regain access to the CM 1100 Modem!!Try setting a static route to the external IP of the modem.
I've had the same problem accessing my CM1100's interface at 192.168.100.1 except that in my case, it started after I activated Ethernet Port Aggregation (LACP 802.3ad) in Feb 2022. After reading two dozen threads at least with regard to Port Aggregation on the CM1100, it seemed like that was a sacrifice to be made for using it. It made no sense, but no one seemed to have an answer.
Now months later, I see similar things happening across the board after a firmware update to the modem? I have an Asus AX88U, I added the static route using the router interface, saved the changes, powered the router off/on (this is a REQUIRED step since the reset always hangs the Asus web interface), and voila! I now have access to the CM1100's management interface again at 192.168.100.1
For everyone else who has a similar Asus router, here is a screenshot for reference!
192.168.100.1 | 255.255.255.255 | Your IP Address | 1 | WAN |
