How do I check the Internet Status using the ARRIS SURFboard Manager app?
Answer
The ARRIS SURFboard Manager app provides the ability to check the status of the Internet connection. If there are problems with Internet connectivity, this provides a quick method to determine if the issue is with the connection to the Internet Provider. This document describes how to check the internet status on the ARRIS Wi-Fi product using the ARRIS SURFboard Manage app.
Check the Internet Status
Tap the SURFboard icon.  The Login screen will appear. Â
On the Login screen, enter admin in the Username field and password in the Password field.
NOTE: If the default login credentials were previously changed please enter custom credentials.  If the customized login credentials are forgotten a factory reset must be performed by pressing the reset button for more than 10 seconds on the SURFboard Wi-Fi product.  This will reset all customized settings back to the factory default settings.
