| Motorola SB6120 -- Frequent modem lock-upsHello Motorola forum,
I have a Motorola SB6120 attached to Astound cable. When the unit is up, it works great. Speeds are decent and reliable. However, the unit seems to lock up about every 12-24 hours or so. When it locks up, I'm unable to ping its management IP address of 192.168.100.1. Power cycling the modem seems to be the only way to get it up again.
The modem is running as follows:
Model Name: SB6120
Vendor Name: Motorola
Firmware Name: SB6120-1.0.1.1-SCM02-NOSH
Boot Version: PSPU-Boot 1.0.0.4m1
Hardware Version: 1.0
Serial Number: 186901901900635605020011
Firmware Build Time: Oct 27 2008 15:33:58
Here is the contents of the log since it was purchased a few days ago:

Is there anything obviously wrong here? |

kudos:5 | Is this modem leased from Astound or do you own it? |
|
| I bought it from Frys on June 11th. |
|
| I recall reading in another forum that there were various problems with earlier firmware for this modem. Has your ISP sent out updated firmware?
Note that you cannot update the modem's firmware- only your ISP can do it. |

said by cshumway:I bought it from Frys on June 11th. The modem isn't recognizing the Config file that is being pushed. Call Astound and ask them if this modem is supported by them with a corrected Config file specifically for an SB6120.

| Thanks for your diagnostics!
I've swapped it out for a SB5101 that has been stable for over 24 hours now. |
