Hi all, NTL has recently upgraded my cable box, taking my line from 1Mb/s to 1.5Mb/s. Very nice of them. But my fairly long serving Bering 1.2 box has thrown a hissy fit, because NTL reset the MAC registration which only lets you connect registered NICs to their network. Now, pump won't get an IP address. It's MEANT to get a 10.a.b.c address and all HTML requests are redirected to the registration server. All I get is "Operation Failed" when you try to restart the networking.
Can anybody tell he how I can diagnose what's going wrong? We've successfully registered a Win98 box on the thing, which works fine. It's not cables, all connectivity has been checked. I've cleared shorewall and prevented my vtun tunnels from trying to build themselves. I also read the ifupdown man page on how to spoof a MAC address, but that implies that you can only use he hwaddress switch with static ip interfaces, not dynamic. Finally, should I just take this as a good opportunity to upgrade to -uClibc? Thanks, James. ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by Shop4tech.com-Lowest price on Blank Media 100pk Sonic DVD-R 4x for only $29 -100pk Sonic DVD+R for only $33 Save 50% off Retail on Ink & Toner - Free Shipping and Free Gift. http://www.shop4tech.com/z/Inkjet_Cartridges/9_108_r285 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html
