Default anyone feel like helping me?

hi,

i got a flashed ambit 250.

can get into 250configurator tool no probs and write new mac etc.
slight problem with the usb mac is what do i change the last digit to if its a letter? just the next letter in the alphabet?

i write my new mac and all i get is the acivation page. it locks upstream and downstream.

do i put my tftp? in or the one it came from? i assumed its mine and have put what i think is my tftp.

what config should i use?

any help please

With your USB MAC i can help, if the last octet (the last 2 digits of your MAC) dosnt end in ff (you cannot go higher then ff) its more like 0f (or af) you can go as you would between 9 and 10 eg. 10 (or b0) numbers are always before letters.

Hope this helps

I apologise i cannot help you with your other problem as i havnt played with my modem to be able to give you any advice
