Hi all
Still having massive problems with my SVHD combo. Ive tried pretty much everything i started back at the begining and flashed it back to the original files, I then changed the mac address back to what it should be. i then did the usual stuff but the box just kept giving me the error(0) login failed i tried various different ways to set it up using different firmware with no luck and every now and again it would reset the mac address so i would have to start again.

Could anyone please give me any other options to try.

Many Many Thanks

Dan

hi mate,, whats it changing the mac address too? with my combo i didnt set anything, once plugged into the router everything set itself. depending on your router you might have to port forward the box to allow the ent thru, but im not so sure about that,, also setting the router for dhcp would be wise that way it can assign everything to the box as needed.
sorry didnt see any previous threads about your situation... just got back form a ban lol.

hi thanks for your reply. It's changing it to the 00:0a:00:00 ect thing. Do you know what port its uses and i will set my router up to forward the ports

Many thanks for your help

Many Thanks for your help

grooverider isnt needed.
i thing the problem isnt with the box but with your net connection.

Hi Just to update everyone on this situation and to help anyone with the same problem. I basically changed the mac address then updated to the latest groverider and then installed the newly available update that came out earlier this week and since then fingers cross not a single problem

Many Thanks to all those that helped it is much appreciated

Cheers

Dan
