Getting a Motorola SBG6580 into “Bridge” mode on TimeWarner Wideband

  1. Unplug coax cable from Motorola
  2. Hold down the white reset button on the back panel with a pen for 30s.  This resets all settings to factory defaults. The modem will be auto-reconfigured once you plug in the coax cable.
  3. When modem is back on plug in a computer with an Ethernet cable into the modem.
  4. Connect to http://192.168.0.1 and login with “admin” / “motorola”
  5. Now you will make some changes:
 
    • Wireless -> Primary Network -> Disabled
    • Basic -> Setup -> NAPT Mode -> Disabled
    • Basic -> DHCP -> No
    • Advanced -> Options -> Rg Passthrough -> Enable
    • Advanced -> Options -> Passthrough Mac Addresses -> Add WAN MAC address of your router 6. Connect port 1 on the Motorola modem to the WAN port of your router.
  6. Plug the coaxial cable back into the modem and power cycle it.
