perhaps you're behind a router and it can't get to the router to check the mac address. are you cable modem or set top box? are you behind a router?

Hopefully someone can answer from CF team, if its meant to be a automatic firmware upgrade?
I am interested to know what this means and if NTL can set it to allow. My modem has ignoreProvisioningUpgrade and still on old firmware. Maybe they set it to allowProvisioningUpgrade when an area has been upgraded and is allowed to download the new firmware?

Any techy people have any more information on these options? TA!

I just wish NTL would publish information along the lines of what areas have been upgraded and people are allowed to go to 10meg and what areas havent.

I remember a conversation I had with a senior NTL person a while back now saying that I would be amoungst the first group of people to get 10meg :( :( :(

lol, yeah my letter said i would be 1st to have 10meg also, at this rate i'll be last.

What with my account showing 10meg at NTL's end and my NTL home 120 modem still on old firmware with Software Upgrade AdminStatus : ignoreProvisioningUpgrade , i get the feeling that IF and WHEN they do a automatic switchon that i'll get missed

I'd take a risk there and toggle off that 'ignore' setting.

update:-

I've just checked mine and you can't change it!

mine is set as

"Software Upgrade AdminStatus : allowProvisioningUpgrade"

Well, I still havent received my speed boost up to 10mb from 3mb after my phone call to NTL at 18:30 last night, after they had told me to reboot my PC after about an hour.

My log is still displaying reboot entries identical to that of the previous page, no obvious file has been downloaded to my modem.. Any suggesions?

Thanks

Dan

The change might still be "pending" on their system, in which case you wont receive the new file until the change has gone through.

I checked mine the day before yesterday and it was set to Allow, checked it again last night and it is now set to Ignore...

Strange...

Finally got it after much of a do... had my samsung box swapped yesterday for a ntl:250 SACM I was told last week that the sammy would absolutely NOT be able to take 10mb... then was told the sammy WILL absolutely be able to take it as soon as the config file was ready! I had to take charge and sort it myself! lol... I am in salford/manchester and here are a few of the speed tests I have done one after the other from here

So even with the "ignoreProvisioningUpgrade" the modem did a update?
