I didn't see the start of this thread, but I have a motorola surfboard
cable modem and the gui interface is 192.168.100.1.

Your ISP will often know the ip address to access the web page for the
modem.  That is how I found out for the surfboard.  I watched the cable
techs when they were doing some troubleshooting on my connection.  Give
your isp technical help a call and ask for the modem interface.
