It's in the CableCARD tab. There's a link near the bottom of the page.

I never noticed that "Number of Channels" was a hyperlink on that page before.

I'm thinking that will help you in the future. When they change the frequencies, you should get a new channel map on the CableCARD, and you should be able to just check the channel map via that page. The bad news is you'll have to wait for the CableCARD to receive a new channel map, but I think you can force the update by calling your cable company and request them to send it.

I didn't even think about getting it from the Ceton card.

There was a post on another forum by Jeremy Hammer a few months ago regarding getting the channel map in xml format.

The url is http://192.168.200.1/view_channel_map.cgi?page=0&xml=1

You can also do http://192.168.200.1/view_channel_map.cgi?page=0 and get html layout. There may be other things you can pass to it but I haven't seen anything.

The first place I looked was for a channel map on the CableCARD tuner. I just didn't see that link on the page. I knew that the CableCARD would have all the correct information... if BHN changes the frequencies (which was not the case this time), I'm sure they'll push a new channel map down the pipe.
