workplace) communicate with the Cable Modem and Networking sections, to remotely access the
internal web page diagnostics and configuration. This stack is also used by your cable company to
deliver packets between the Internet and the gateway's networking section so they can be routed to/from
your PCs. This stack requires an IP address assigned by the cable company from their pool of available
addresses. Your cable company may have you or your installer manually enter assigned addresses into
your gateway, or use a DHCP Server to communicate them, or use a method that involves you entering
host names. This stack uses a MAC address of MAC label + 2 (the MAC label is found on the bottom of
the unit). E.g., if the MAC address is 00:90:64:12:B1:91, this MAC address would be 00:90:64:12:B1:93.

with the Cable Modem and Networking sections, to access the internal web page diagnostics and

gateway's Networking section and your PCs. This stack uses a fixed IP address: 192.168.0.1. It uses a
MAC address of MAC label + 4 (the MAC label is found on the bottom of the unit). E.g., if the MAC
address is 00:90:64:12:B1:91, this MAC address would be 00:90:64:12:B1:95.
With RG Mode, your cable company must provide one IP address for the CM section, plus one for the
Networking section, from their pool of available addresses. With RG Mode, each PC you connect gets an IP
address from a DHCP Server that is part of the Networking section of the gateway.
