To lock up the modem, enter ‘IF Loopback Enable’ under the Test Menu, or connect a Loopback
Cable from J11 to J13 on the rear panel of the modem.
Usage of the modems loopback capabilities in conjunction with the
Ethernet data interface can produce undersirable network loops. In order
to run any type of data test with an Ethernet interface you must utilize
two modems connected back to back. Simply using one modem and a
loopback will not produce the desired results.
