I was online for about a week, with no problems. Then suddenly the modem won't go online anymore (online light flashing, not static). My modem is a 5101 with Haxorware 1.0rc6. In the event log I was getting a lot of this:
DHCP Failed - Discover sent, no offer received
After about 8 hours, and many restarts, it finally connected again. Why might this be? I suppose if someone else was using the MACs I tried then that would be a problem, but I tried about 15 different ones over that 8 hour period, and it didn't seem to help. (and yes, I did change my NIC MAC when changing modem MACs to give myself a sense of security). Any advice greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
