Hoboken, NJ | It may well be a customized firmware, direct from OOL. I wonder if regular Netgear firmware could be put on? |

flash it ddwrt firmware.
more features and you'll be confident that CV can't remotely screw around w/ it.

1 edit | You'll need a special build for dd-wrt.

thanks for the replies. i did notice there a page on the router for
CV's remote access/login capabilities.
i've used ddwrt in the past on my linksys routers so i'm familiar with them.
thanks again. |

That's completely over-the-top unjustified paranoia.
Now why don't you tell us what CV would accomplish with "remotely screwing around with it".
Like: increase costly inbound call volume to customer service maybe?
Ah, and it's their router, too. |

The router is cablevision's just like the modem and STBs and must be returned when you end service, so you might not want to put dd-wrt on it. |

That is actually a remote management page for the user to log in remotely. that setting is included with every single router you can buy. I would suggest setting it to any port you'd like if you want to use it or disable it (or, keep it at the default port of 8080, which happens to be blocked on the OOL network, and leave it enabled). OOL doesn't touch LAN settings, so you really have nothing to worry about. |

Paranoia? I think it's Cablevision's paranoia that you can't do ANYTHING to the router. They don't/won't give the admin user name or password to the customer, you can't do port forwarding (all ports are locked, according to a call to their internet tech support). You can only change the SSID and WiFi password with some stupid ass program you have to get from them, digido. What are they hiding behind the router? Forwards that we can't see?
That's paranoia. |

| Did you look on the router where it says "user name: " and "password: ", right under "Default Access"?
They're hiding the "we don't troubleshoot your router and don't want to have you login and ask questions", however it would be a lot easier if they realized it was printed on the actual router and just told you to look there. |
|
| It's actually my brother's house. I was there when they installed (he not being computer savvy). The tech read out the info from the bottom, but that was just the SSID and WiFi P/w. I didn't actually look at it. I will when I go there this week.
Thanks. |
