Most likely your incoming cable signal is weak. If you call your cable company, the on call support tech can sometimes resolve the issue from their end.

If not they can send a technician to your house to measure the signal strength. The tech should first measure the signal strength before it comes into your residence and then again at the input to your cable modem.

The surfboard also has an internal web interface that provides a good deal of information relating to your signal strength and other diagnostic information.

I'm not sure about yours, but the internal ip address of my surfboard web interface is 192.168.100.1

Regardless though, you still need to get your ISP involved to resolve the issue.

How do you change the mtu settings on a sb4200

Hi,

Try to access the Web interface of your router. Access http://192.168.100.1 and look for MTU. I think it is set to 1500 by default.

Password,Username, and SSID

The SB4200 Modem according to the Motorola website does NOT have wireless capabilities. In fact not a lot of cable modems do have wireless built in to them.

That is the modem to which you refered and it does not have wireless. In order to connect your Wii wirelessly you would need to purchase a WIRELESS ROUTER, which most major stores carry varios brands such as Linksys or Netgear.
