Default webstar epc2100

hi im trying to mod this modem with a max232, after i do all this :Set your IP address to: 192.168.100.10
Set your GateWay to: 192.168.100.1

Start tftpd32.exe

Now start hyperterminal and connect to the COM port of the PC using these settings:

Bits per second: 115200
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: hardware or xon/xoff
Power the modem up.


all that happens in hyperterminal is scanning DS frequency,this seems to go on and on and on,is this normal and should i just let it finish scanning, as far i was led to believe once i power up the modem i id get the 1,2 or p option which i did but it just scanned, i thought i was supposed to get something like this: Code:

Board IP Address [0.0.0.0]: 192.168.100.1
Board IP Mask [255.255.255.0]:
Board IP Gateway [0.0.0.0]:
Board MAC Address [00:10:18:ff:ff:ff]:
Internal/External phy? (i/e)[i]

Now you should get the main menu...


Code:
Main Menu:
==========
d) Download and save to flash
g) Download and run from RAM
c) Store icePROM bootloader to flash
b) Boot from flash
e) Erase flash sector
m) Set mode
s) Store bootloader parameters to flash
i) Re-init ethernet
r) Read memory
w) Write memory

Choose option D


but no i dont get any of that, so what am i to do? wait till the scan is finished or am i just doin something wrong,thankyou

i've not come across a 2100 with option p dissabled but i think you have one here! search for 'console unlocker' and theres a thread by joker. have a read at that and treat your 2100 as a ambit.
