There may be a way to flash with other firmware - unless the HG-E (TELUS revision) will only accept certain firmware - which is a likely scenario. -- - The content of this post is my opinion, and does not necessarily reflect the opinions of my employer. -

ISTR seeing something on the BellER forum about flashing their 2701HG-G modems. It might be worth looking there. IMO it is not worth the hassle of flashing modems with "funny" firmware unless you find that sort of thing enjoyable or challenging. In any case, even if you end up bricking the Telus modem you can get a refurb'd 2700HG-B for ~$25 that will do essentially everything the 2701 series can do.

For $25 I think it would just be easier to buy one where you know it's going to do pppoe... And not bother goofing around with the telus Modem... That being said I am always amazed what people will try in order to save money... LOL Regards Joshb -- Live long and prosper, Mom
