In effect you may be seeing that the modem tells you you are on 0002 now but what you are seeing is what the config file is telling the modem it should be on.

In some cases there is a need for a further reset which is scheduled for tonight. In other words the modem firmware is still on 0003 even though it tells you its on 0002.

Ah, thanks Peter. That makes a lot of sense. Out of sheer luck (apparently), I've not had any problem since my CM's admin pages started reporting v0002 firmware.

Do ntl still allow the user to query the CM's using SNMP? If so, I might re-download Robin D. Walker's DocsDiag software which can query the CM's SNMP info. If I remember rightly, it can give a dump of the CM's log. It should be possible to tell from that whether or not the firmware specified in the .cpr file has actually been downloaded and applied yet. I haven't tinkered with DocsDiag since 2001-ish, when we had a Terayon Terajet

Just out of curiosity
