The modem won’t function when hooked up to another computer or a router?

0

If the modem is moved directly from one computer to another, or connected to a router before the DHCP table clears (once a day) the MAC address won’t match, and the tower will reject requests from the new computer. Hook the modem back up to the original computer or router, and perform an IP Release, then hook the modem into the new computer or router.
