Re: Radio Cable Burning!!!

It sounds like your modem is working if you are running for a few minutes before the wires start to burn. If this is the case, it sounds like the power supply in the RC has gone bad. It is likely feeding raw 12 volts to the modem. This requires a call to Innovation FIRST. You likely have to return both the RC and the modem. This is the first time I have heard of this condition.
