Make sure echo-mode is enabled ,if you still have problems try with terraterm ,, when you have boot.exe running in the background and it has the vxWorks file in it`s directory, the minute you insert the bootline , it will load the the file through boot.exe.
OK..got the bootfile goin..pasted the 2 lines of text into hyper..the tut says I got to write the new firmware to flash!! I've got the hex file but I don't know what to do with it?
Ok if the vx file took ,you have to goto http://192.168.100.1/ straight away before the modem reboots as the vx file is temporary ,,on this page you should find the hack tab ,click on that and scroll down to the bit were it says upgrade firmware and load the hex bin then update ,,you should see the modem reboot within a few minutes and after that you should have permanent hackware on the modem.
Well if you have loaded the vx file , it would of had to have loaded through hyperterminal ,,so if you look at the images in the tut , and they are similar to what is on your terminal and fireball windows then the file took ,then just goto the 192 page of the modem and see if you have the hack tab ,,if so then upgrade.
Ok everything on hyperterminal is ok up until the part where it is looking for the vx file ,,make sure boot.exe is running in the background ,and check that it has the correct ip of 192.168.100.10 allocated.
