Hi i dont know if anyone can help me here but i have a 255 modem with haxorware 1.1 rev 32, the mac im using lets me online with no forced config, but every 15 mins it kicks me off and stays on ranging complete, the freq changes itself to 331000000 and when i put freq 1 back to 402750000 and reboot it comes back on again

HFC Parameters
Mode DHCP IP Address 10.37.79.117
Subnet 255.255.252.0
TFTP Server 10.37.76.1
TFTP Filename 54k;fg87dsfd;kfoA,.i
ToD Server 62.253.131.111

is there a setting wrong of some sort maybe, i have followed most of the tuts of setting haxorware up but it still does the same

BPI - Disabled

All other settings are set according to tuts on here, mac's are setup properly i presume..

Thanks

I am also in the teesside area lol

Please ignore my previous post lol i found out what the problem was... Bad MAC address, got a new mac off a friend today and its been on 2 hours or so with no drops, so fingers crossed this will work for a good while.

Cheers

Well you only need to change one really. If you are using a router just change its MAC. I find thats the easiest option when using a router.
