- Comcast Firmware Causing Problems?
- Posted by unknown@unknown.com on June 4th, 2008
I am signed up with service through Comcast
(te-9-1-ur02.churchville.md.bad.comcast.net). I notice that my
traffic now makes an extra hop to
(te-7-2-ar01.whitemarsh.md.bad.comcast.net), which doesn't make sense.
It never has done that before. That is the major POP for an adjoining
county in this state.
Getting strange stray TCP packet resets from SARCOM, Inc. - home.
I also noticed that I am receiving a lot more spam on web pages than I
used to. Some pages come through the cable lines incomplete or
corrupted.
The firmware I noticed being loaded in the Motorola Surfboard cable
modem SB5120 config is:
DHCP: OFFER: Setting (*) CM TFTP Boot file:
d11_m_sb5120_standard_c01.cm
I can find no other mentions of this firmware on the web.
I also find that nothing happens when I try and click on the "Reset
All Defaults" button like it should. The confirmation warning that it
will take a long time to reset appears, but nothing happens
thereafter. This has to be a feature built into the firmware...
So can anyone identify what might be going on with this firmware? Can
can anyone identify it? First they pull selective traffic shaping on
torrents, and now this...

Yeah, I suppose that I am just overreacting to some suspicious textual
matter that is appearing in web pages I pull up. It is also strange
that Youtube is not accepting my uploaded content anymore (the
evidence here is substantial), I could simply be crazy, or just
plain ignorant of the cause. Whatever the case, just humor my post.
Reminds me of the good old days when I was playing Phantasmagoria.
