DOCSIS 3.1 Cable Modem
If you are using a DOCSIS 3.1 Cable Modem, changes on the network adapters
will have to be made. You may follow the steps below or request Translite for
a firmware suitable for the Docsis3.1 environment.
Log in to the network adapter using the default IP address 192.168.144.200
Click on TL-MC85 Settings and make sure D-Ext and D-Low are unchecked
The LOF has to be changed to 1400 as well
Once steps 2 and 3 are completed, save the settings and after reboot, the
adapters will be compatible in DOCSIS 3.1 environment
Note : For DOCSIS 3.0 cable modem, the default firmware that comes
installed on the device should work as-is.
