I would have used 1 of 2 email addresses to set it up.Connect a laptop directly to a LAN port on the router, no WAN cable connected. We were having issues so I reset the router. On the back of your device, press and hold the recessed Reset button until the Power LED is yellow. As I understand it the MAC address of the device connected to the internet when the modem is provisioned is locked into their system and that is the device that they expect to see connected to the modem.

(a) Power off device. Could be stale ARP cache data or a new DHCP lease linked to the MAC (think Spectrum still runs 30-day leases? Re: Unable to login after reset - AC2000/WAC124 You can close this thread by clicking on "Accept as solution"  If you switch the device connected to the modem, you must reboot the modem before your router can obtain an IP address again.Also, in some markets, if your router sends too many DHCP requests in a short amount of time, Spectrum won't answer your request for an IP address.

When you get a new modem all the previous information about your setup Spectrum has is discarded. Connects to wifi, but will not pull IP from router.Before doing the above, I connected the unit to my network and with internet access, I was able to link to the website but when I use the 2 email addresses, I get a message that no devices are assigned to this user.Can you tell me the email address or account this router is assigned to? Switch it, no internet had to call to set it up since the selfinstall was not working. I need to either get it into router mode or get the device assigned to my email address or get the password reset on the Netgear webpage so I can once again have access to the router.

After I reset the router, I tried the following: I miss the days of just entering the default IP and logging in to setup a router. In my experience the only MAC address that is "locked" is the modem itself, which is why you have to call them (or maybe attempt the self-activation) when switching.They do remember the MAC of the device connected to the modem, but only for DHCP, so it assigns the same IP again. They sent a new Modem.

it should tell you if you've still got the warranty on it (provided you bought it from an authorized seller and/or new) I need an answer, Spectrum did not block your router per se, this is their method of securing your connection to their internet. If your previous setup was with the router as the first connection it might have been because a tech was there during setup and he was more willing to do it that way or you might have gotten a better tech over the phone, that I don't know.

Auto-suggest helps you quickly narrow down your search results by suggesting possible matches as you type. Leave your router unplugged for a little bit (5-10 minutes) then boot it back up.One scenario where cloning the computer address can bite you is if you ever sign up for Spectrum's streaming app.

The PC is the newer equipment. Finden Sie die Restore Factory Settings - oder die Reset-Taste auf Ihrem Router. The only one who sees your cloned MAC is Spectrum.

Did Spectrum blocked my routers mac address? Now, it is a boat anchor and not a very good one.Why can I not reset this router, connect a patch cord to a LAN port and to my laptop NIC and using default IP info and login credentials, access this router for configuration? Normally you just hold in the router's reset button until the router LEDs flash, but a few makes including Netgear do require you to hold the reset button continuously until the unit resets TWICE to get all the way back to factory defaults.

Connect an Ethernet cable from an existing router with an Internet connection to the yellow WAN port on your WAC124. Thank You. equipment no long ago.

This means that the configuration settings would be erased. They used to use this ability to limit the number of devices that could be connected to their networks.

Wait for the Power LED and Internet LED on your WAC124 to turn on and stay a solid green.

One thing for sure, I will never purchase this model again. For the past 20 years or so, that is exactly what I have been doing.I have used this router in one other customer but now I am concerned about using it in furture client offices.Glad to hear that it is working.
