hi tee, i have a ambit 250 subbed modem if i cancel my subscription with ntl can i then use my modem or is it better to have one registered in someone elses name. cheerz

Tee_111 · 31-01-08, 02:53 PM

Yes you can cancel the subscription, but dont use the same modem yet, best to get another 250 modem to mod, also it is best to pay for some sort of package, i.e for a cheap internet package, or the basic tv package, in this way you will not get disconnected.

ok cheerz tee, i know some people who have the modded box without having a small package and have had no problems, do you really have to have a package, cheerz

Guys my subscribed modem is an old model, a silver cased one labelled underneath as NTL:120 and I have another similar model I was given called an NTL:100.

Are they "modable" ?

Thanks
