Hey i just found out that by default the username/password for all ambit cable modems is admin/admin Click Here and enter admin/admin to view info on your modem.

Most of the cable modems doesn't need a password. Because most of them can not be accesible from outside.

BTW also I have a motorola SB5100 any uncap tutorial / experiment.

I heard it can not be uncap too.

And 2 good resources about uncapping;

impossible to get a file from a tftp server where u dont know the name of coz tftp does not list directorys.

Indeed :S

First of all the best modem to uncap with is the Motorola SB4100 due to it's flaw in Ethernet broadcasting. Second of all, capping will get caught, I used to work in Charter and whenever an account exceeded 600kb's above it's given speed a red flag was sent to the admins. a normal cable connection will only give you about 75% of the speed you are said to have because the data is not A-symmetric, this is why T1 cost more even though it is 1mbps. The reason for this is because T1 is A-Symmetric and it offers a higher quality, more reliable pipleine for digital communications. On optics if they say you have 44Gbps, you will get 44Gbps UP and Down. On Cable modem if they say you get 3mbps which most do then you would really be getting about 1.9mbps down and about 300kbps Up.

Anyways, cable modem uncapping is very very obvious because the tftp servers are constantly monitored, expecially if the HFC MAC ID registers to a Motorola SB4100.

so remember over 600kbps RED FLAG!

Btw most of the cable modem files are called silver_config

In case not, I post my response from there to here.

if you're in UK on NTL or Telewest there is a very effective method...MAC cloning!

you need a friend with a cable modem who lives a few miles away (and will be on different subnet to u).

At his house you can use special software to sniff for other mac addresses on the cable LAN, so you could say sniff a few addresses... (make sure they are 1mbit accounts)

then back at your home (which isnt on the same cable LAN subnet) you reprogramme the 3 cable modem boxes you bought off ebay with the sniffed MAC addresses, split the cable and plug them in...

at this point you will have 3mbit cable modem bandwidth for free...it is also 100% untraceable PROVIDED!!!! ...THIS IS IMPORTANT... you NEVER USE YOUR EMAIL ACCOUNT FROM NTL / TELEWEST ON THESE STOLEN MAC ADDRESSES.

if anyone's interested i can post a detailed guide on how this is done.

finally, i have not tried this, but i know ppl who have in xs of 10 boxes on one cable... who dont even pay for a single modem subscription (which is safer as the cable firm dont even know your name). 

[jead99]

Sounds interesting but unfortunately i don't live in the uk.

The router my isp sent to me when i signed up is a Samsung Inforanger SCM120R but i haven't seen or heard of any methods to uncap those cable modems. If any1 got any info plz post it here.

[jpno5]

yeah i have ntl in the uk, i cloned mine over a year ago and ive still never paid a single subscription, i only use a silver mac addy though, but i have a couple of 5mbit gold addy's just incase. theres no chance ntl will catch u ther far too stupid. i done my cable box as well thanks to NoviceAngel

How do I get the key.key file to re-encrypt the file when I'm done modifying it?

yeah most docsis modems can't be uncapped, it's illegal, unfair, you will be caught, and docsis 2.0x will make it near impossible. btw, some of these newer ambit modems may have root/root as their default as well for TWC RR customers.

[kyriakosnicola]

.. would such a hack work on a DSL connection ? lets say.. i got an Alcatel Speed Touch 350i modem. would that possibly be able to raise my speed ?

[D3ADLiN3]

you cannot change the speed for ADSL this is done by the sercice provider (well in the uk anyhow).
