I looking for a guy with Scientific-Atlanta WebSTAR DPX 110 modem.
All I need is to PM me (better for privacy) the MAC address of the modem as well, as the S/N of the modem ;) (they are found on the bottom sticky)
Now you probably asking why ;) And probably worry too, heh. Well, not to worry. Knowing this won't help me hack your computer, as these information is only useful on your local ISP HFC network, and I can't get there by other way that using the same ISP - remember, I live in Czech republic, so... You are safe. So the worry part we get covered ;)
Now the WHY. The why part is more entertaining. I aiming to simply make fun out of my ISP technicians (we know each others well, so, they will take it :evil: ) by showing them that I could make them believe that my Motorola is not Motorola anymore, it is a Atlanta and later Thompson :lol:
(friend got Thompson modem, so I copy his information... :p )
I simply want to shock them, how many "modems" I can own and swap them so quickly, hehe ;) And yes, I know that the same MAC address can't be on the same site segment, but my friend is on other segment, so - no connection loss will happen even for him ;)
Pure fun project - and yep, this (MAC address and S/N) IS possible to change within firmware. I never tried it yet, but it looks like I can manage it - I can report success or failure later, if anyone interested ;)
PS. the MAC and S/N numbers aren't "any number you can think off" - there are valid Motorola prefixes for MAC:
00:0E:5C
00:0B:06
00:08:0E
00:20:40
00:01:AF
00:04:BD
00:0C:E5
00:0A:28
00:E0:0C
This well correspond with the SB 4200 of mine:
Motorola SB4200
---------------
S/N: xxx003232504731102010000
MAC: 00:0B:06:50:xx:xx
while my SB5100 has new one, yet the S/N following the rules:
Motorola SB5100
---------------
S/N: xxx103418406555502010000
MAC: 00:11:1A:E4:xx:xx
...so, a little help out there?
PS. is changing MAC + S/N of cablemodem extreme enought? :p: :D
