Hi there

I'm currently on the 300k service and have half a mind to take the free upgrade when it comes around next month. But, firstly I'd like to do a little investigation with regards to bandwidth usage. I understand that the Surfboard keeps track of data transfer and this can be extracted via SNMP, I plan on using PRTG as mentioned by others here. However, PRTG cannot connect, saying that the connection has failed. I can ping 192.168.100.1 and view the web admin page, but cannot access SNMP.

Does NTL lock the SNMP of the Surfboard (4100)? Or am I barking up the wrong tree completely?

I have an old Linux box that acts as the router for our home network, but the stats for transfer over the CM reset themselves everytime the box crashes/gets reset.
