In Grimsby. Most macs I use come up as operational in haxorware but will not connect to the Internet I have no idea what's going on. No mac I use will work apart from one that worked for 15 mins this morning.

When stuck on operational, yet no internet connectivity.Power down the modem, and spoof your pc/laptop nic mac.Power on the modem, disable and then enable your ethernet adapter and you should be back up.

Sure.Bit erratic from time to time, not had it stable for a few days, but forcing does generally work here haven't powered the modem up for several days though, so I will re-confirm tonight as I am updating another webstar to haxorware 1.1 rc31 from haxorware 1.0, in the hope this might resolve some of the issues I have had.Depending tftp server and config name, I could force fine, some wouldn't work though.

At least 5 modems down in Belfast - different macs and configs, all working before. Tried changing tftp addys, macs etc but modem stays on offering 192.168 address and will not pick up net address.

Anyone working again in Belfast?
