TWC.MAC

[cucadr34ms]

My SB5101 was working, recently my online light went solid, not blinking and I was not able to get online. After changing BPI setting and nothing worked, I resetted my modem to factory and decided to start over. I sniffed up couple MAC addresses 4 miles from my home in NYC but so far im stuck. Can someone guide me please?

yes ima newbie.

you need certs changing the mac on it's own wont work anymore due to the new security

Is there any specific type of cert?

[drewmerc]

one's from a subbed modem that resides on a different node

You need the matching certs/mac address from the SAME modem. In short, get/obtain the "non-vol" section of a subbed TWC modem, NOT in your node.

[drewmerc]

not same modem, same chipset

So SB5100: Broadcom BCM3348; SB5101: Broadcom BCM3349, the ce@t on SB5100 cannot be used in SB5101, right?

[drewmerc]

ok 5100's can with a bit of messing about(i'm talking certs only) a 5100 nonvol should be fine (i was more or less implying a Ti d2 based chip or some other wacky chip)

BCM3348 chipset can work with other BCM3348 chipset modem. While BCM3348 chipset cert can also work with BCM3349 modems you need to extract the cert individually and inject it individually too

So I will have to get a cert matching mac from any modem from a TWC service? How far out do i have to go from my home to be outside my node?
