Change Drive Letters in Windows XP

When you add drives to your computer, such as an extra hard drive, a CD drive, or a storage device that corresponds to a drive, Windows automatically assigns letters to the drives. However, this assignment might not suit your system; for example, you might have mapped a network drive to the same letter that Windows assigns to a new drive. When you want to change drive letters, follow these steps: · Right-click My Computer, and then click Manage. · Under Computer Management, click Disk Management. In the right pane, you'll see your drives listed. CD-ROM drives are listed at the bottom of the pane. · Right-click the drive or device you want to change, and then click Change Drive Letter and Paths. · Click Change, click Assign the following drive letter, click the drive letter you want to assign, and then click OK.

This article is my attempt at giving a snapshot of the world of uncapping DOCSIS 1.0 CM's as it looks in early 2002. I strongly discourage users from stealing bandwidth. At the same time I strongly recommend the MSO's and cable modem vendors to proactively and constantly improve security. The Myths FUCKUPC - "There once was a hack for the Lancity cable modems. A disgruntled client of Chello Netherlands created a program to remove the upstream limitation. Instead of 16Kb/s he had over 300Kb/s upstream. The hack doesn't work anymore." says a well known user as a comment in the Q&A section here on Cable-Modems.Org. According to other sources
