they will both work in the same ubr, but as u already guessed not 4 long at all cos once ur clone comes online it does boot the genuine modem runnin the same mac off..and once that reboots it then comes back online+kicks ur modem off, then this happens constanly like a tennis match..the likelihood then is the subbed customer would phone VM 2 ask wots goin on..
