How to fix this?
Here are four fixes you can try out.
Check internet connection
Now’s also a good time to check whether or not you have an active internet connection. If you’re on WiFi, make sure you’ve got an active link and that there are no signal issues. On cellular data, ensure that it’s enabled and that you’re getting good network coverage.
Restarting your router can help get rid of a bunch of seemingly random internet and connectivity issues that may be hindering your connection to Spectrum’s servers.
Enable pop-ups on the Spectrum website
Disabling pop-ups on the Spectrum website can cause some critical code to not work as expected. This can lead to a number of problems, including NETGE-1000.
Step 1: Click the three vertical dots on the top-right of your browser window.
Step 2: From the drop-down menu that appears, click Settings.
Step 3: Scroll down and click Site Settings under Privacy and security.
Step 4: Scroll down and click Pop-ups and redirects.
Step 5: Make sure that the Allowed slider is enabled.
