TWC SoCal IPs

[docsis_bozo]

If understand correctly Haxorware sets a higher number of Max CPE devices by default, that number can be changed via a shell command, and about in the same location you will see there is a way to display the current max number it is set to.

Forceware has a similar option that can be set on the Web GUI.

I am not sure how one could easily swap from one IP to another on Forceware. How are you able to do this on Haxorware?

It's an interesting trick.

I install Technitium MAC Address Changer, then open notepad and insert...

Code:

@echo off
echo Your IP will be reset after 10 seconds
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Technitium\TMACv6.0\TMAC.exe" -n Ethernet -rl -r -re - -rn -s
timeout /t 10 /nobreak

Save as newip.bat and now I got an easy to use batch script. Takes about 5-7 seconds and I got a brand new public IP. I can do this on all 7 of my computers I have without affecting any of the other computers and without having to restart my modem. I am using Haxorware completely stock with no changed options, simply called in the Mac that came with it since it matched the certs obviously and works flawlessly.

You then take a $100 basic pc and rent it out for $300/month.

Interesting didn't know that multiple public IPs was due to MAX CPE setting. However with my forceware modem if I change the mac on a pc directly connected to the modem, you had to reboot the modem to get the new IP, this takes a good 1-2min. With Haxorware when you change the MAC, it virtually instantly issues you a brand new public IP without a reboot being required. Since Forceware supports Docsis 3 if I could get it to issue a new IP upon mac change without a restart, I'd be in heaven.

Thank you for giving me a detailed explanation.

I am almost positive if you change the MAC address on your Network Card and you have a MAX CPE set on Forceware it should then provide you a new public IP address. It may take longer than Haxorware but it will work without a reboot.

I will try to test it to confirm my theory.
