sorry for the long winding lots of extars thread , but its better to put everything down in the hope that sum1 can tell me what im doing wrong , as i keep having to drive around looking for hotspots to try and read what im doing wrong , but its very hard to do so , then run back home to try and read and also do , what i had previosuly read

many thanks in advance for any help

or maybe there is a file i can upload and solve all my problems

also i see that there are 3 mac addresses hfc ,ethernet , and usb mac

what are all these for?

[rajkosto]

you need to either use static ip and autoserve a config file, or clone someones hfc mac

[badger]

untick force network access and take out cm-2148-256 . Also I have found if you put HFC Mac address in, then ehternet mac is HFC + 6 in hex, and usb is -1.
Serial number is HFC mac without the : in.
It also helps to spoof your ethernet mac.
