You can not buy these modems, look on the bottom of them there is a sticker saying "property of ntl" you have been ripped of you are handling stolen goods. The tech you spoke to did the correct thing, if your 200 modem is faulty ring faults and a tech will come out and fix it.

SORRY MATE YOU HAVE JUST WASTED HOW EVER MUCH YOU SPENT NTL WILL NOT TOUCH IT WITH A BARGE POLE

im kicking my self right now thank you for your help though

Nope you aren't supposed to be buying your own modem, and ntl won't install it for you.

The 200 is fine in most circumstances, that probably wasn't the fault to be honest could have been other issues. Harlow has been problematic historically.

So you've wasted money buying a nice doorstop, wasted your time calling tech support about the stolen modem (it wasn't the person who sold it to you's property to begin with, they remain property of ntl), and wasted your time posting here, no-one can or will help you.

It is a pretty doorstop though isn't it? :)

ntl will not hunt you down, if you have a problem with you sacm ring and ntl will fix the fault, they can not fix it if they do not know about it.

Thread Closed

The answer to the initial question as to why the 250 modem won't work has been given: Unless modems are supplied direct from ntl they cannot be registered with them. Attempting to connect modems not supplied direct by ntl, can be considered as theft of services, and is not a matter for discussion on Cable Forum.

If you wan't assistance with why your ntl supplied modem and service is not operating as you expect, please start a thread specific to that.
