No, because since I posted I have been able to connect. Both routers have the same behavior. They can connect once, but thereafter the modem will not respond to further dhcp requests. I found the only way to get that first response is to change the router's WAN MAC to a few value. Fortunately, I have a bunch of MAC addresses in /etc/ethers going back a number of years.
This is clearly (to me, at least) some change in RCN provisioning and/or firmware. But they deny anything changed. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Edward Ned Harvey (blu)" <[email protected]> To: "Jerry Natowitz" <[email protected]>, [email protected] Sent: Sunday, November 23, 2014 7:19:22 PM Subject: RE: [Discuss] Very odd RCN behavior, PC can connect, but not routers > From: [email protected] [mailto:discuss- > [email protected]] On Behalf Of Jerry Natowitz > > Any suggestions? Maybe the WAN jack of your Netgear went bad? _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
