We've just taken over a business with a cable. Our ISP sent us a new modem
as the old one couldn't reach the speeds we required. The modem arrived with
instructions including our new and old modem IP adresses. We have a BEFSR11
cable router.

How can I get the router to point to the new modem's IP. I can't communicate
with the router as someone has changed the password.

Any clues on how to change this over?

Use the reset button on the back of the router. It will bring it back
to the factory default password.

But you have to hold it in for several seconds to a accomplish a full
reset.

Will it automatically find the new modem? Is there anything I am going to
have to manually set?

It's more a question of the modem finding the router. The usual
procedure is:
remove poser from both the modem and router,
wait 15-30 seconds.
apply power to the modem and wait for it ti sync up,
apply power to the router.

You should be able to contact the router's setup page by pointing your
browser to <http://192.168.1.1>. If the reset was successful, the
default password will work.
