The ability to access Hitron’s CODA56 GUI requires firmware version 7.3.5.0.1b2 or higher. This firmware is only available from your ISP, since the upgrading of all cable modems is governed by DOCSIS standards, which mandate that the distribution of firmware updates lies with the Service Provider.
Hitron does not provide end-users with a direct link to downloadable firmware for cable modems. Instead, firmware updates are handed over to the Service Provider, who test and distribute the firmware to the respective cable modems on their network. This firmware is currently available for Comcast Subscribers.
