Hey Slacky I had a patched Ambit 250 modem that got bricked and stopped working...I wasn't able to login into the modem using the configurator tool....are you saying I can solve this problem and make my modem work again ???

Please Help

no when its bricked u do need to replace or reprogram the chip, the soft jtag is a method to get the option p back to flash the modem
