Umm not all modems download all updates they only download the ones intended for them, so it's rather hard to flash the whole lot. If a single firmware for the ntl branded modems were sent to all modems the Terayons and Motorolas would do a little more than just drop packets they'd fall over and not work at all.

Methinks the engineer did not know what he was talking about on that one.

A bad update to the Terayons wouldn't have happened don't think their firmware has been updated in ages.
