Newb simple questions - JayCee14xD - 15-11-2011
i have an SB5101 with version 1.1 Revision 39 of haxorware.
i purchased this modem premoded to learn.
i understand somewhat but i want to know how HFC macs work.
i know we need working macs to get online and i know how to sniff for them.
i know i cant use macs from my town.
Do i need to use a mac from my same isp?
i have time Warner in nyc.
the isp in my area is time warner and the isp in the bronx is cablevision
if i scan for macs in my area from my sb5101 those macs are a mix of isps or are they all time warner?
or does any mac work?
and how do i set witch isp to use. (ex. i want to try and use my sb5101 in the bronx) will it work with the mac i already have? what settings would i have to change on haxorware?
Whats a cert?
i know im a newb but it doesnt hurt to try.

webby not modded $6 and a usb ttl cable to mod it $5 (and the cable is only needed if the 1 click installer does not work)

It is employed by many cable television operators to provide Internet access (see cable Internet) over their existing hybrid fiber-coaxial (HFC) infrastructure.

so i am back and i have figured it out. now i am going to start buying sb5101 not premod and mod them myself but will i need to solder in those pins?
RE: Newb simple questions - drewmerc - 29-06-2012
i dont, but then i use oversized headers, but you can just put a bit if tin foil round each pin so it fills the whole better (or hold it at a jaunty angle)

sb5101 maxes out at 30Mbps. Why even fuck with those??
