Nop, just aiming to have some fun with modding firmware on my modem ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() And we are talking here about a cable modem, of course. Never heard of it? Relatively wide-spread brand in USA and around the globe. My ISP use only 10 Motorola modems (mine is 11-th one) yet about 1000+ Atlanta ones - they go with the name WebSTAR DPX 110 or 120... http://www.slibe.com/images/5630ac07...R_DPX110_j.jpg There you have it ![]() pdf guide there: http://support.medialine.cz/pdf/ws_dpx110.pdf ![]() ![]() |

I have a SA Webstar but is a different version so sorry ![]() |
| ||||
![]() Well, what one? ![]() You know, after all it is still Atlanta and I have to check out how their MAC address ranges are and what their S/N looks ![]() BTW, not long ago Cisco acquired them ![]() |
| |||
So, why not use the IEEE OUI assignments instead, given that they control the OUI assignments? Scientific-Atlanta is defined as 00-01-A6 and 00-16-92. Motorola BCS is defined as 00-04-BD, 00-0B-06, 00-0C-E5, 00-0E-5C, 00-0F-9F, 00-11-1A, 00-11-80, 00-11-AE, 00-12-25 and 00-12-C9. However, I fail to see how "making fun out of ISP technicians" has anything to do with this? Changing MAC addresses is hardly anything new, given the ability to do so has been around for the last 26 or so years.

![]() And some fun - well, never hurts? ![]() ![]() And you did change MAC addy of a cable modem, if the ability is there for 26 years? ![]() ![]() That is why I want to try it ![]() You know - always trying new things ![]() |

The first three octets of the MAC address are assigned by the IEEE. The IEEE maintains a list of Organisationally Unique Identifiers (OUI), which is the three octets you have been interested in. It works exactly the same way as ethernet, because a cable modem network is very similar to ethernet in some ways.

![]() Ah, uh, errr, okay, so, THIS is it: http://www.coffer.com/mac_find/?string=atlanta Scientific-Atlanta MAC prefixes therefore are these: 00:01:A6 00:0A:73 00:0F:21 00:11:E6 00:14:F8 00:16:92 00:40:7B 00:50:B0 00:D0:36 And even this could be seen as a lot of infos, it is not nearly enought for me yet. Now I need the S/N lenght, some example(s) of it won't hurt as well (to check if there is only digits or letters too) and mainly a example from DXP 110/120 owner, as these modems S/N seems to begin with "SM0..." and the DPX 2203 ones goes with "208225..." - witch is still far too little infos, tough :o |
