Power down both modem and router. After 15 sec, power up the modem,
wait until its light stabilize, then power up the router. This clears
the MAC address cache in the **MODEM** and allows the router to be the
connected computer. With the router, this only needs to be done once.
You do have a valid Comcast HSI account?
