Default Need answers lol ambit 255

Hi guys, can anyone give me the answer to this please
I have a Ambit 250 with infinity software running on it and modem is working great.
I have just brought a Ambit 255 from same fella which is also running infinity software, now here is the question.

Should i be able to put in the same mac address and config file that i have used in my first modem (250) into the 255 that i have just got.

The reason i ask is that although i am putting all same settings as the 250 into the 255, i cant get it to go on the net, it keeps coming up with something like " to join virgin broadband click here"

Now to my mind, with same software, mac, config, both should work on the internet.

I am not trying to run them at the same time, just want to make sure the 255 is ok before it goes to my brothers house.

Well thats it, hope dident lose you along the way lol.

Thanks
