I have a BCM 50, R2. The LAN ports keep locking up and denying access. The problem is, the replacement box they sent me is a BCM50e, 5.0. Can I regenerate the keycodes for the R2 box and load them onto the R5 box? And use the backup I have and restore from it?? Thanks in advance.

Check the IP address from your LAN port and the OAM port, they might be interfering. If I remember right they changed the default IP addresses in ver 5, but I'm not sure without looking in one.

I think you can migrate the keycodes, but your version would still be at release 2 and you couldn't restore a release 2 image onto a release 5 hard disk, so you would have to reuse your old v2 disk.
