Re: Upgrading Firmware on Thompson DCM475 Is Rogers the only company refusing to upgrade firmware? How about Videotron? Are they holding the same deplorable attitude and practice? |

For what it's worth, Cogeco will update the firmware of any supported modem connected to its network, regardless of who owns it. |

Couldn't tell for sure, but mine updated itself from STAC.55.01 to STAC.55.04 the first time it joined their network last Februrary. They deactivated the web interface a month later and I haven't been commited enough to find out if they pushed new versions since then.
That's a fascinating thread thanks to mlord and Teddy Boom. Lots of good info in here. |

Lots of references in this thread to starting points. I hate to be like this, but if you aren't finding anything you aren't looking hard enough. I don't want to go any further in the direction of "how to hack cable internet" so I'm not going to hold your hand on this.
