Thank you SlowGrind
I have started to gather the tools for this fascinating hobby.
I have a usbjtg-nt, which I don't know how to use yet, but haroldstein pointed me in the right direction.
I got a sb5101 for testing. It has haxo v1.1 r32, and software
SB5101-2.6.2.0=NOSH=NNDM.
So I did not get the chance to do the backup before it was flashed.
My virgin SB5101 used by the ISP has software SB5101-2.4.1.6-SCM02-NOSH.
My intent was to use the software from the virgin (ISP) SB5101,
And learn to flash it into the test SB5101. In other words restore the test modem and then re flash it with haxo again.
That is what I meant with flexibility and testing.
Do you recommend doing that? Are the 2 softwares compatible?However I'm still in the learning process so flashing will not be done in the near future.
I did what you suggested with a slight modification, to try out the test modem.
I connected the test modem and didn't get past the third light.
I used the mac from my ISP modem and the test modem goes online, all lights on, but no internet.
To prove that I was on line even though there was no internet,
I also plugged in the ISP modem to see if the second modem will knock off the first modem off line as it should. It did.
Now I know that I have good test modem.
My task now is to find out what is happening.
Did I do anything wrong?
