Think Modem (250) has been Bricked...Not Sure...Please Advise

[blobert]

Hello,

I recently got an NTL 250 working with NTL in Dublin. It was mostly fine except the connection kept dropping out every hour or so so I tried a few different Macs.

Since early today the internet is no longer working and when I try to access 192.168.100.10 I get an error message saying it is not available (this has not happened before, I normally get the Infinate page)

I tried connecting to the modem using the Ambit tool via telnet but it says the address is not available.

I can still connect by Max232 and change the Mac settings etc (and these stay changed) but the internet is still not working when I change back to a Mac that was working and I still cannot access the 192.168.100.10 Infinite Page. I had changed the user name and pass before this happened so I thought it should be reasonably safe.

2 possible things that might be wrong: Vista tried to fix the problems it was having with the network connection so it might have changed something (unlikely) and I also did a lot of DHCP sniffer Bruteforce scans yesterday which may have drawn attention to me.

Anyway I can't work out what's wrong so any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

i carn't help much but if you can access the 192.168.100.10 Infinite Page the modems ok so it just maybe the mac or config. 1 more thing mate run it through HyperTerm and see if you can still mess with it.
Thanks

Address for the infinite page is 192.168.100.1 not 10 mate, thats where your going wrong.
