   Have you tried removing power for a minute from the modem?
   If you know the admin password for the IPCop box, it is probably
configured with the green interface as the x.x.x.1 address with the x.x.x.
the same as the computers that it connects to, so log in to
https://x.x.x.1:445 with the username admin, select status - network status,
and read the IP address of the red interface. It is probably something like
y.y.y.2 where y.y.y.1 is the web address of the modem administration pages.
   Log in to the modem and view its html setup pages on your normal web
browser. Many default passwords are obvious, such as the same as the default
username or a series of numbers. If you can see anything such as a login
page it will show that port 80 is probably getting through the IPCop box.
