Which firmware are you running? I had both boxes running 5.0, and I exported specific sections of the configuration instead of everything in one shot. Still I found that if I imported the files into the target box and ran import from the command line it fail with an error but if I opened the

I posted this on the MT forum but I wanted to throw it out here too. Thanks. I've got an RB-750 that I want to replace with an RB-750G and I can't get any connectivity between the RB-750G and the Motorola Surfboard cable modem. First I exported in imported the RB-750's config into the RB-750G

I thought of that and tried rebooting the modem and it didn't seem to help. I'll try it again. If the modem was latched to the MAC of the downstream box, would that just effect DHCP or would it effect connectivity in general? So nobody thinks it's possibly a GigE auto-negotiation? I'm going to

It was an issue of needing to reboot the modem, but also that the RB-750 was getting a different IP address via DHCP from the modem than the RB-750G was getting from the modem. I guess the IP address that's handed out is based on the MAC address of the client. What threw me off was each time
