Watertown, MA | [Equipment] Cisco dpc3010: remove cox firmware? I got a used cisco dpc3010 from Amazon, and discovered upon arrival that is has COX firmware on it.
Can I just plug it in and wait and hope that it works? How can I flush the COX firmware off of it and get it loaded up with RCN firmware?
thanks!

Allentown, PA | I think the bigger question here is, is this unit stolen?
Otherwise, you should be able to flash it by going to cisco's consumer website and downloading the firmware and following their instructions on how to upload it. |

Let me clarify, not saying you stole it, saying did the person who sold it happen to 'misplace' it when he/she was suppose to return their equipment. |

Watertown, MA | seems that as soon as it was provisioned, RCN's servers flashed it with their own firmware (d3000-v302r125533-110811a.bin)...
Could've been stolen, or could've been COX selling the returned units to a third party... hard to say, but the seller is a "business" at least according to amazon, and they're selling more than one.
Either way, less than 40 bucks for docsis 3 8x4  |
