Hidden WiFi network on EPC2425

    Just wondering if anyone else has noticed the extra, hidden network that the EPC2425 sends out, and if so, does anyone know what it's purpose is, or how it can be accessed (just for curiosity's sake)

    Windows shows it up as "Other network" but its obviously from my router, as the signal reflects the visible "UPCXXXXXX" network, and the hidden one also dissappears when I plug out my router.

    Have you tried logging into the config and seeing what it says ?
    Id be interested in this hidden network - it may be a back door for NTL ni case they need it, or could just be a setting someone left on by accident.

    I do up the cisco configs for a smaller ISP on cisco routers and i did up a template system for creating them , if the template is wrong , pretty much all the routers will be - so NTL may have a similar system.
