ECM WARNING - Ambit 250 modems - Remote brickage!

ok all is not lost for me cuz ive still got another 200 lying about with a sigma x 1.06 firmware, but i need ur advice on what to do from here.
 
.....Is yours behind a router?

like I said before .. I run 2 PC's

My PC with Router attached, modem worked fine after reboot

My PC with no router, modem fried

The router will make no difference whatsoever !

The modem is connected directly to the cable (WAN side). The router is then connected to the modem (on the LAN side).
 
Well ECM has just hit my mates modem....He just called to say it can't get an IP address....Obviously I can't get around there now but from what he says would you say the modem is dead or just needs a new mac??

my mates got hit last nite so i've asked a few people who i know has them and they been hit as well and cant telnet into them either so must be dead middlesbrough area btw
 
is there another attack on ,,5100 been going nuts the last 20 mins,,dissconeceting all the time
 
man now i know why my 200 went of, its because i restored my settings to default which made my telnet user and pass restore aswell. (i thought the settings were the problem when it stopped working)
a warning to 200 users when using telnet, dissconnect the cable feed first and after disable telnet and connect it afterwards. also change ur user and pass of telnet if ur using sigma x2 firmware (hxxp://192.168.100.1:1337)

Hi, do you know if he had default telnet uid and pass? Was the serial number default as well?

See what your saying nozzer.. strange why one was hit (without router) and one was not ( got to be mac address then for me)
