Bit of a Long Shot: Does anyone have the Ambit 250 Ultimate Pack?

[blobert]

Hi folks,

I'm off work tomorrow and was hoping to get down to setting up my NTL 250 modem.

I've spent the last 2 days scanning for MACs, have exchanged them and am ready to go but the downloading feature on the site has been down for a day so I cannot get the Ambit 250 Ultimate Pack from the downloads section.

If anyone happens to have this on their computer and would upload it or email it to me I'd be eternally grateful.

Thanks,
Robert

WHY NOT!
I am still using that Infinite fw! as long as your 250 was not Bricked! and you follow the
advice in the sticky "### Protecting your 250 ### "

Use Hideki "Ambit Config Tool v0.971b" to search for a working Mac's for your area
run the Mac's through DHCP Force "Discover" to find a 20mb Mac. ="cm-20480-768"

Back to "Ambit Config Tool v0.971b" incert that Mac and disable override TFTP cfg,
Click Apply Then go into CM Terminal and change Serial & USB:

cd non-vol
cd snmp_cm
docsDevSerialNumber AABBCCDDEEFF (Your Mac)
write

Re-Boot Modem:

cd \
cd \non-vol/halif
usb_mac_address AA:BB:CCD:EE:FF (Your Mac +1)
write

Re-Boot Modem:

That's it your 250 with Infinite will be working again at 20mb : multi :

Well the infinite firmware is more likely to be targetted due to the snmp headers as stated by adam. But one good reason not to use the infinite firmware is that in certain areas it causes the connection to drop after around 5 - 10 minutes regardless of which mac you use! Adam's firmware doesn't and thats first hand from me as i tested both. Another reasons is once youve uploaded the infinite firmware, as of yet there is no way to then change it to adam's, at least if you choose adam's and you dont like it or dont get on with it you can then apply the infinite firmware. So that's WHY NOT!

 

[blobert]

Does adams firmware have decent instructions with it, I am quite the idiot so will need a step by step guide.

Also I don't think NTL in Ireland are doing anything to stop the modems at the moment.

 

[ckirkby3]

The instructions are as clear as day.

I used adam's guide last night and flashed my first Ambit 250 .without any problem
PS Nice work adam


The problem that this gives me is that I cant use any of the cool toys that comes with the Ambit 250 Ultimate Pack, as in been able to scan for macs on a different nodes

Or can I ??

Cheers All

thats right you cant use hideki's am(cho)bit tool

but i think solsters tool pretty much does the same, but quicker, and more effectively anyway

 

[lord-icon]

"solsters tool"

Much Thanks
