Re: SB5101: Cannot perform soft reset/restart/restore

Ok, now I know how to get both reset modes working.

Posting "RestoreFactoryDefault=1" and then posting "ResetReq=1" (or doing both at once) appears to cause the more thorough "Factory" reset. Note that just sending "RestoreFactoryDefault=1" alone has NO immediate effect, but apparently primes the modem for the reset mode it'll use when it DOES get the ResetReq:

curl.exe -v -d "RestoreFactoryDefault=1&ResetReq=1" http://192.168.100.1/goform/RgConfig
 

It takes longer than the regular reset in my previous response (3-5 min?), also clearing the log and downloading the config file ("SW Download INIT - Via Config file d11_m_sb5101_silver_c01.cm", which appears to be correct for my level of service and modem type).

It's a little academic (it neither helped nor hurt) but it's good for future reference.
