don't use a config, just use the 20MB mac address you could try

Yes indeed. Upgrade the modem to Haxorware using the telnet method with TFTP server.

I have a 255 running Haxorware that can't get it past 2mb. Tried loads of macs, most of which won't at all, but ones that do never go past 2mb.

Is there a way of knowing which are 10mb or 20mb macs?

cheers
