Hi Guys,
Looking for a little help. got a 4200i with fibercoax firmware, I would like to put hackware on it,as I've read its easier to work,can I just flash new firmware via ethernet cable or do I need to connect via blackcat cable,and
is it permitted to ask where to get an up to date hackware flash, or would it be better to buy a subbed modem and put a new flash on with ethernet,I've spent the last week reading every post on forum and feeling a bit stir crazy now lol.

p.s. hope this makes sense to everyone
