Need help changing IP address on new cox modem
Got a new modem from cox and i need to change my ip. On my old modem i'd log onto 192.168.1.1 and change the mac address and unplug/replug the modem. The new modem model is "TG1682" by Panoramic.

When you changed the MAC address, whose MAC address did you use? If you use a MAC address, that's assigned to a different device, somewhere in the universe, you can cause all kinds of conflicts for yourself and your victim. It's rare that someone actually legitimately NEEDS to force a new IP address. Apparently, your new modem is using something different for a default gateway. Something other than 192.168.1.1, which is probably the most common IP add for that as assigned by a "consumer" modem or router. Get your computer to tell you what your default gateway is.
