is it a 5100 or a 5100e, if it's an "e" then you can use haxor, if it's not then the other firmware is called...dam can't remember the name of it now..lolo it'll come to me in a minute.....

you can only use haxor on 5101e mate not 5100e if its 5100 put SB5100MoD.1.0.4.Beta on it very good stable firmware

what if its SB5100i chip is 48 (not 49) does it make any difference coz am kinda sruggling to put any firmware i it.

got a Blackcat soldered it and detects the flash.

You can run Sigma on the 5100.

Find a copy of Haynes Cable Modem Guide Rev1.7.2 google is your friend, and have a good read though it you will find all your answers there

Flashed with these 2 files SIGMAX-BL_v2.6-LITE & SB5100MoD.1.0.4.Beta and its not working coz all lights come and go with in 2 seconds.

I have copy of the original image and if i put it back on it works, but its not accepting any firmware.

any ideas
