And in anycase you have an incorrect perspective about people with MS credentials. Qualified to fix Servers..  Oh, sorry I didn't tell you I was a CCNP as well, may have made you cuss some more... even though the certification may be more relevant although not affilited to cable modems!
Flushing the local ARP cache isn't doing f' all... Do you know why I am getting the same IP 82.45.x.x when I connect the router to the cable modem? This is the case which I suspect is causing the problem as I already stated that even when the cable modem is connected to the PC and is using this IP 82.45.x.x is still runs at 4MB. However, it's only until i reboot the cable modem it assigns the PC an 82.35.254.x address which in turn gives me a 10MB connection...
Hence the fustration! |
If you really have a CCNP then you will
know that the CPE IP Address has no bearing on the speed of the connection / config file in the CM. Also the IP address is bound to the CPE MAC address for as long as the lease lasts so as Unlimited correctly said all you would need to do is spoof the PC MAC address to disprove your assumptions.
That said there is significant resegmentation going on at the moment and perhaps a release would do the trick (but it should only take around 30mins not 3 days!!).
Good luck
