Hi Rick, not all cable areas have moved to Nagra 3 yet, am near Dublin and my cable box is till working a dbox2. Sly sports and Movieas are still active.

As for Modems, I thought they cannot be affect by Nagra 3? Or I could be wrong.

when you get one opperational, do the floowing in telnet.....

cd ip
lease_show 1
(answer yes)

if it comes up with a few thousand seconds, thats the best you can do.

if it comes up with 120 seconds, try another mac

To access your modem via telnet download Putty, just go and search google using the terms "putty download", then once you have done so, open it up, and brief description, you will see radio buttons at the top, select the telnet button, then input 192.168.100.1 in to the Host Name (or IP address) box, and hit the Open button.

so am i right in saying that u need a mac that is sufficiently far from you but not too far and it has to also be on the same frequency as your area?

My old M0t0r0la s3rfboard SB4100 just went down just after midnight in Card1ff. It appears that their servers where updated to point to a new TFTIP address!

Previous - 10.137.103.3
New TFTIP: 10.72.204.1

Chnaged to the new TFTIP and everything appears cool so far and its back to 10mb ds.

Hope this helps someone!
