That sounds like your MAC is already in use in your UBR - you need a MAC from a neighbouring UBR to work.

My m8 is on 24/7 same as myself its very strange cause since i made this post it hasnt went of once. I think it might have been something to do with i changed the mac and config files while the coax was plugged in. I was being greedy trying to get tround the 5mb trafic shapping stuff but all seems good now
