Hi,

I have an Ambit 250 modem (Blue with USB) It is currently flashed with Infinite.

Do I still need a cable to reflash it with a diffrent FW or can it be done via the ethnet cable?

Thanks,
Vandal.

Set your computers ip to 192.168.100.10
Set up a TFTP server with haxorware11rev31.bin in its root
Make sure the haxorware webgui isn't currently open
Connect to modem with hyperterminal or telnet to the IP 192.168.100.1

Use the Firmware Upgrade page on the WebGUI, find haxorware11rev31.bin and upload it to the modem in the Firmware section
Reboot the modem using the WebGUI or otherwise, and the new version of Haxorware should now boot
