said by ijake:Okay well, it turns out, Bell is no longer pushing firmware updates for this modem. The TSI agent told me that Bell pushed firmware updates a couple of months ago. He said my modem must have been online to receive it. Which is quite odd because my modem has been online during this time frame.
My router was essentially supplying the modem with the PPPoE settings, so I assume this must have been the problem.
Well, that's interesting. If true, then I guess now I have one modem that is permanently 1.0.4.4R8, and one modem that is permanently 1.0.4.3EF-Stinger.
However, IIRC my Cellpipe that did get updated to 1.0.4.4R8 was only acting as a bridge when it got updated (last year). The PPPoE session was negotiated by my router, not the Cellpipe. Or maybe I am just not remembering correctly.
