ok got a ntl 250 modem and been working ok for 4 days....

today i went to swop the config file to another one as was going to slow....

rebooted the modem and looked on 198 etc and said was locked and was waiting on DHCP? all looked ok down bottom, but now for 2 hrs wont work? using the wireless from downstairs at the moment

im still learning so i bet i did something wrong

trying to use ambitconfig0.971beta

no, you need to read mac/test link first. then do your alterations, then write.
