Default Need help with some spectrum DNS IP addresses

And the DHCP isn't finding the spectrum dns server farm. . .


Does anyone have the static IP address for router to use?

Or can someone DM me with a phone number who might be able to come over to the house for a few minutes. .

Thanks!

You can always use the google public DNS if you need to get you out temporarily. 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

I typically do this in my routers anyway. There is also opendns that you can use as well if you don't want to use google. That said, if google dns is down, the internet has some serious issues.

Default I had to factory reset the router and reprogram it from scratch

Thanks everyone for reading, and making great suggestions.

The 2 year old linksys router didn't have the throughput so the 400MB service was only going through at 157MBs. After installing the new router, the OOKLA speed test showed almost 500MB download and 23MB upload, which is phenominal, the fastest you can get without going all fiber

We had to factory reset the router and reprogram it from the beginning as we think there was a docis 3.0 versus 3.1 issue with the cable modems so the install the second time worked perfectly, and the house is max ready for renters who selected the house for the home office wiring and speed for a working vacation

now to just retire to play sports every day. . . .
