Network Eligibility

The Hitron CODA-4680 available from NCF has been certified by the following cable network vendors for operation on their infrastructure:

  • Rogers (Ontario)

Firmware

Current certified firmware version: 7.1.1.2.2b9 (on the Rogers cable network)

Cable network operators control what cable modems and firmware versions can be used on their networks. Operators run all cable devices and firmware versions through their own testing process, after which the device and firmware are certified for use on the cable network. After the testing and approval process of a new version of firmware for a cable device, cable network operators may then automatically upgrade all cable modems connected on their network with the latest certified firmware.

NCF does not have access to firmware that it can provide to members.

  2. Connect a device to the modem by plugging an ethernet cable from your device into one of the LAN ports on the back of the modem, or by connecting your device to the modem over Wi-Fi.
  3. Open up a web browser on your connected device.

    • Username: cusadmin
    • Password: <the Wi-Fi network password that you configured in the Quick Setup>
  6. Select Login. The Status Overview screen will display.

Modes of Operation

  1. Routed - Functions as both a modem and Wi-Fi router, which is recommended for most members. Another router can be added to extend the network, but each network must use a different subnet.
