Yes. It is because you have flashed your modem with inappropriate firmware / suffered a bad flash and killed it.

Try connecting to your modem using the softjtag program and rs232 interface. you can flash just the bootloader or the entire flash from here.

Failing that, you can resurrect the modem like a fat one-legged pigeon rising from the ashes by using a blackcat / poor man's jtag cable and the Schwarze Katze software.

Use 13.5full.stealth.bin as suggested by aviz06 several posts ago.

Or you can just flash the bootloader or whatever, restoring the 'p' option. Anything's better than what you've got on there atm.

May help if you flash the firmware using above mentioned program, and whatever may lie at that URL

Of course i'd not know what may be held at that incomplete URL

cheers, fitz.
