Default Modem not down ?

thought might be nice to start a thread about modems not down, with a few details of how solved the down prob hopefully,

am running haxo on a ambit 250, have triead few diff macs, forced 20 megs and un forced all went off within few hours, so did a bit of reading, found a link saying to use diff "Frequency settings", hmm, haxo can take 3 so tried "402750000" as pref 1 and "331000000" as pref 2, then used a mac from another area, but made sure was a AMBIT 250 MAC same as my modem, ran ok for 24 hours, so forced a ambit 250 10 meg config, hmm 24 hours later and all ok.

hope some 1 can confirm somet i done is good and also hope this helps some1.

Ex C+W in London is also using 298750000 as a second frequency. This has been added a little while ago automatically.
