Rozwiązywanie problemów

If you encounter issues with your ARRIS SURFboard SB6183 modem, try the following troubleshooting steps:

• Brak połączenia z internetem:
  Check the front panel lights. If the 'Online' light is off or blinking, there might be an issue with your ISP connection. Ensure all cables are securely connected. Try power cycling the modem by unplugging it from the power outlet for 30 seconds and then plugging it back in.
• Niskie prędkości:
  Verify your internet plan speed with your ISP. Ensure your router and connected devices are capable of handling your subscribed speeds. If multiple devices are using the internet simultaneously, this can affect perceived speed. Try connecting a computer directly to the modem via Ethernet to rule out router issues.
• Problemy z aktywacją:
  If your ISP reports an 'outage' or difficulty activating your modem, ensure that only the new modem is connected to the coaxial line during activation. Sometimes, having an old modem still connected to the system can interfere with the new modem's provisioning. If possible, connect both your existing modem and the new one (perhaps in different rooms) to allow the ISP to provision the new one without issues.
• Modem Not Rebooting:
  If the modem does not respond to a software reboot command or a simple power cycle, try unplugging the coaxial cable from the modem before power cycling it. This can sometimes resolve issues preventing a proper reboot.
• Przegrzanie:
  If the modem feels excessively warm, ensure it is in a well-ventilated area and not obstructed. Proper airflow is crucial for cooling.

If problems persist after trying these steps, contact your Internet Service Provider for further assistance.
