Thank you, got it working.
Resetting helped, had to do some other steps to get it going.
Going to repeat the steps here for other non-gurus like myself

Save your config - tools / system / save configuration (make sure you know where your default save location is because it does not allow you to choose a name or location)
Press and hold the reset button on the back of the 655 for 10 seconds (you should see the lights go out).
655 / browser will say it will take a few minutes.
When done clear your browser cache.
Close browser.
Open browser.
Log into 655 (user name ADMIN, no password, these were reset).
Restore your config - tools / system / restore configuration from file (browse and find the config.bin file you saved earlier)
Wait for the login screen to appear.
Clear your browser cache.
Close browser.
Open browser.
Log into 655 (user name ADMIN, no password, these were reset).
On the status screen, if your WAN settings are blank (IP address, gateway, dns server, etc.) power off / on your cable modem to reset it.
Check the status screen after the modem resets, your WAN settings should appear.
Set your password(s) - tools / admin
Check your internet connections, should be working now, it did for me
