Here was a weird Mac address at first I thought that it would be working but alas not, just took me to the Virgin media register your modem page.

Here is the event list in the GUI

[Image: weird_event_log_for_a_mac.jpg]

And the putty log I am getting to grips with telnet the more I read, but there are thousands and thousnads ofthe buggers and with so many different cable company's having different rules makes it even harder. This helped my understand the different layers and protection each company can have .

Sorry If I am boring you but better to get advice at the start if I can, The real work begins when I dissect my mates modem Big Grin Sure #virgin will replace it if it goes tits up. So any literature either online or to buy which may help fell free to post. scribd are very good I have found, along with this forum ofcourse
