If it will not open

The browser shows a privacy warning: Cox says this is expected for this page. Continue only when you are on your own gateway, not on public Wi-Fi.
Blank login is rejected: Someone may already have set a login. The guide does not cover resetting the gateway, so ask Cox for help.
Where is the Wi-Fi name?: The default name is on a sticker on the bottom of the gateway. Replacing an old router? You can reuse its Wi-Fi name and password so your devices reconnect.
Is the Wi-Fi password the same as the admin password?: No. The Wi-Fi password is set under Wireless > Security, the admin login is the one you create at first access.

How to keep your router secure

Change the default admin password and use a long one that you do not use anywhere else.
Keep the router firmware up to date.
Turn off remote management unless you really need it.
Use WPA2 or WPA3 for Wi-Fi.
