Not op:
Likely because each ISP pushes configurations remotely and you need a way to update the fpgas. Things like your upload/download speeds are controlled by the modem not the head end. Additionally there is a web interface for initial setup and troubleshooting.
Almost assuredly vxworks
- PhantomGremlin 5y agoAlmost assuredly vxworks My Arris modem says Kernel 2.6.18 That refers to a very very old version of Linux. VxWorks probably costs money to license. Linux can be downloaded for free. :)
- tw04 5y agoWhen tcniso was a thing, Motorola was using vxworks. I'm actually shocked that Arris switched to Linux and then went with a 2.6 kernel. https://www.dslreports.com/forum/r12703049-Using-a-Surfboard-5100-Firmware-and-Signal-Q-s https://www.dslreports.com/forum/r12703049-Using-a-Surfboard...
