i posted the pack of files you need here for the 250, its got a video tutorial which helps to clear up all the jargon

Webstar epc2100

so all you need to do is read the guide and watch the video to see how things are done

everything you need is in the pack so you shouldn't have to get any other files

http://www.sendspace.com/file/x10ss1

it appears that Ambit-250, Ntl-250, Scientific-Atlanta-Webstar-2100 and motorola-SB-5101 all use the same file, just the guide may vary.

You need a RS232 Interface mate, and a RS232 lead to connect the interface to pc, you can get it all from Lincsat's Nick-nacks..
