It probably looks like the 100 and 200, the internals having a slightly more up to data chip. I mean what was the difference between the 100 and 200 colour coded plugs on the back.

Beats me why someone would pay £40 for a modem that's not registered on NTL's network! Sounds like the seller has got a good deal !!

Re: pictures of the new ntl 250 modem please
 

I am guessing you have never used telnet to alter the MAC address of the cable modem to a already regestered ntl customour to defraud ntl out of free 1.5mb internet?.

as if I would do that:angel: ...

The reason for sale and how it was acquired look a little dubious.

Re: pictures of the new ntl 250 modem please
 

I don't think thats anyones understandin gof the T&Cs. NTL retain rights to all hardware (and cables) on your property, with CMs they ususally don't bother collecting them due to thier low value. I guess his busted one was collected when they swapped it for this 250 model, but if he is out of contract and NTL don't want to collect it then there is no reason he cannot sell it.

You mean it's authorised on the basis of a MAC address that can be changed :shocked: Don't these things have a fixed serial number?

Somewhat more complicated than that.

Let's hope you haven't done it, I'll be checking your records for the past 3 years just to make sure though. :angel:

there is a piccy here, also a description of the improvements, and discussion of the legality of this sellers ebay auction :)

Re: pictures of the new ntl 250 modem please
 

The seller refered to it as never installed. My assumption (could be mistaken) that the modem isn't registered on the NTL network until it's installed!

I e-mailed ntl's PR department a week ago asking for a picture to go with our news item on it's launch - I got zero response (pretty much as expected).

Re: pictures of the new ntl 250 modem please
 

Change the mac address and get your ass kicked by ntl, trust me it won't be long before they realise, although they did forget to bill me from september till january.
