Panoramic bridging

Hi,

I setup the panoramic cox device in bridge mode and then connected my Netgear nighthawk ac1900 to it, however I can’t receive an internet signal to the router... I’ve rebooted both multiple times. Any ideas what’s going on? Do I need to call cox to allow the router?

    How do you know no Internet to the Nighthawk...lights or wired/wireless devices?  What the make/model of the Pano unit?

      My pc wired into the router is receiving no signal and the internet light on the nighthawk is red. It’s the cgm4141 model.

        Another contributor...Mouth...is the expert, but I've read toggling IPv6 on your Hawk may help.

    why not run your router from one of the rj-45 ports, that's how i run a netgear router for a couple older dell laptops that won't run on  pano wi-fi??

      Why don't the Dells work with Pano?

        not sure if it may be 10 year old architecture but they won't connect to either but connect with the slower, up to 300 cheapie netgear router i used before the panoramic upgrade.

      Honestly I was just seeing if using my gaming router instead of the panoramic cox one and switching that to just a modem would fix my latency and packet loss issues

        Losing packets is more of a WAN problem between your modem and the Cox CMTS.  I wouldn't think a router would be losing packets.
