Hi Karen! Soon, I am likely to get Spectrum cable Internet in California (Rancho Cucamonga). I would probably have this same issue. Could you please reply with the link to the Spectrum website where they list compatible routers? Thanks! Richard

I wonder if anyone has installed OpenWRT on a router and used it with a screenreader? That is open source firmware that gives more functionality to a router. I hope I got that name right. Glenn

I’m with Spectrum in Fontana. I don’t think the router is the issue as much as the modem. Since I’ve been with them, I think I’ve used a TP-Link, Linksys and have been using an Eero mesh WiFi system for the past four or so years now. Where you do have to pay attention I believe is the modem that you use if you want to use your own which is generally the better choice. You don’t have to pay the expensive monthly rental fee and you can get a much better modem than what you’re usually given by your ISP. Checking my Amazon order history, looks like I bought my ARRIS Surfboard SB6190 back in June of 2016. I just had to call Spectrum at the time and read them off the Mac or whatever number off of the modem so they could ping or register it and I was good to go. Other than that, it’s been plug and play and forget about it but for a few area outages. From what I recall, navigating the TP-Link and Linksys with Jaws were accessible enough to do what I needed to do with ports and tweaking this and that, but as far as Eero, I’ve only used the iOS app when messing around with the interface.

Dave,
I logged into my router, and all I can find
is:
Linksys Smart-Wifi
Mine has three removable antennas and two USB ports
on it, if that helps narrow down the model.

Dave, I'll see if I can find the model by logging
into it.
I'll let you know.

Do you happen to know if the router you have is
still available? If it is, what is the model number?

Hi Dave,
I use a Linksys Smart router, but I don't use
any Linksys software, I use the web interface, and I find that Internet
Explorer works better than the three main browsers for router
interface.

Subject: Routers which have an interface which is accessible
using JAWS
Hello everyone:
I need to set up port forwarding for a
particular purpose. My ISP provider, is EE. The router's interface is
mostly accessible. I was able to choose the device from the list, enter the
start and end port forwarding addresses but, I could not find the button to
press, which saves the new settings. I called EE and explained my problem.
EE sent a technician to my home to try and help me set up the port
forwarding function, which is when we discovered there were a couple of
buttons on the port forwarding page which had been designed as graphics,
which of course,no screen reader cannot speak.
Now, I am looking for a router, which has an
interface, which is accessible using JAWS. Until 2014, when Annie and I
moved to the UK, we always had Lynksys routers. Are the modern day Lynksys
routers fully accessible using JAWS, if not, can any list members
recommend a router, which is accessible, using JAWS.
Any suggestions, must contain both make and
model numbers.
Thank you in anticipation for any and all
suggestions.

Dave,
I logged into my router, and all I can find
is:
Linksys Smart-Wifi
Mine has three removable antennas and two USB
ports on it, if that helps narrow down the model.

Hi Karen! Wow, there are a lot of routers listed there! Might you have a suggestion for one that is “best” and most accessible? I do need one that is dual band. Thanks! Richard

Hi Richard, The tech here suggested the Asus. I don’t know if it is accessible. Perhaps someone else can say? We haven’t ordered ours yet. Karen

Hi Karen! OK. Well, it sounds to me like you will be trying the Asus. If and when you do, would you please let us know how it worked and exactly which model you got? Many thanks! Richard
