Title: Modem locked to provider Post by teeka on Oct 15th, 2009 at 2:37pm
Hi,
Is there a way I can tell if a 3100 or 3100-NB modem has been locked to a specific provider's network? The modem I have is not connected to any dish at the moment and I am trying to determine if I can resell it as second hand equipment without any issues. |

use the rlock command
example: > rlock Remote lock status: LOCKED > rlock Remote lock status: UNLOCKED |

I thought RLOCK stood for receive lock?

Better yet, just prove ownership and iDirect might unlock it.
