Username and Password required staring February 1

[Syaoran]

I just had that message pop up on my MAG254. How is this going to work, especially with reseller accounts?

[scorsese]

You need a donation number, good luck. I am in the same boat.

[Iboo330]

Dose this mean that every time that someone turns on Live TV that they would have to login?

[DarkSide]

no... should only have to log in once.... more info to come on all of this

[Iboo330]

Thanks DarkSide, I'm a Newbie reseller. I preinstall the service on Avov Online+ boxes. Will there be problems with the boxes that I have already sold?

[DarkSide]

they will have to add the user/pass in order to connect to the portal... so, shouldnt be a problem

[Iboo330]

Are you saying that they would need my user/pass to connect?

[DarkSide]

they will need the number the mac is linked to

[Iboo330]

do I lose anything as a reseller by giving up the donation number?

[DarkSide]

guess it depends on whether they know how to use the donation for iks...

[Iboo330]

Iks, I know nothing about. Is Iks the only thing I should worry about.

[DarkSide]

dont worry!! youre making it more of a deal than it is!

[Iboo330]

I just new at it. I want to know how to deal with my customers when they question me. Also what I should or shouldn't give them.

buying just one donation code does not make you a reseller

If you have sold many boxes with the NFPS or Rocket server address on it cause it worked, well all you have sold them is a box that will work with what can be had for free.

Is this what you are saying ?

[Iboo330]

I have sold 8 boxes and I have 10 more on hand. I buy multiple donations at a time to resell. What can be had for free?

[crazed 9.6]

and does each donation come with a 12 or 13 or 14 digit code ?
The box owner has the MAC on the box. With them Avovès all that is left needed by the box owner is the code they bought from you, so yes give it to them.
Unless there is some sorta different way resellers do it. I know some keep that code so they can shut down the client by changing their MAC, for what ever reason I do not know.
If they pay you in full, then there should be no reason not to give them the code, and now you would have to, if they are gonna be able to use their Avov box after nov 1.
Not like before, where they did not need the code.

[Iboo330]

12 digit code. I have no problem giving up the donation, I'm not trying to do anything shady. I just need to be able to answer questions. I buy the box, I install the donation when I get a customer.

[crazed 9.6]

12 digit code. I have no problem giving up the donation, I'm not trying to do anything shady. I just need to be able to answer questions. I buy the box, I install the donation when I get a customer.
I gotcha :)I didnèt wanna make it sound that there mighta been anything shading, sorry about that :)

What will happen come feb 1st is you can still do as you are doing, but you will have to add the code per box as well, and each code will need to be linked to the MAC of that box or have the new box owner do all of that.
Either way, they will have it cause it will be visible to the user on the box.
On them avovs you do that thru the server menu. There will be a Use Credentials option there. Thatès where the 12 digit code gets entered.

You will prolly have to send them first 8 guys their individual code so they can add onto their box soon, i think :)

[Iboo330]

Ok, I learned something. I will need to have them enter the donation number into the Credentials option. So, when dose the user/password come in.

[scorsese]

The user/password is the 12 digit donation code

[Iboo330]

Thank you for the information. Very much appreciated.

[longodongo]

hopefully this is the end of all the bozos who were stressing the server by getting it free. Good things hopefully will come from this.

Is this what you are saying ?
Are you saying for USER you would type in the MAC # and for PASSWORD would be the DONATION # let me know in detail what's gonna be different feb1 from before

[dottidot]

For stb emulators, does anyone know where the username/password information will be entered

[aevt628]

I think I got itlol

[ilan]

@ xmas: Are you saying for USER you would type in the MAC # and for PASSWORD would be the DONATION # let me know in detail what's gonna be different feb1 from before

Read the announcement. It is the uppermost post. Unless something changes, the donation number will be both the username and password.

[Reaper]

Where do you put in the user and password in the mag 254 boxes ?

[Syaoran]

Where do you put in the user and password in the mag 254 boxes ?

I was just wondering that myself. Hopefully they will add a tutorial to the announcement post showing exactly where it goes.

[crazed 9.6]

Ok, I learned something. I will need to have them enter the donation number into the Credentials option. So, when dose the user/password come in.

And each individual donation number needs to be linked with their MAC addy from their receiver or device.
That can be done thru service website.

As far as other devices then the avov which Iboo has, I don;t know.
lol.. that is bad answer, I know :eek:

I do not have the mag254 connected,
I do not use Stalker , so I do not know really how that works.

Check Announcement thread.
There are many on-going threads now too that will show some answers.

This tutorial is based on previous experience with Username/Password Authentication on a MAG 254 / AVOV VIXO 1 / TVOnline+ units

For MAG units:

When your Username/Password Authentication is implemented I suggest rebooting your device.

If NFPS is your only Portal, your device will automatically boot into the NFPS Portal. If you have multiple portals select the NFPS portal, and it will load.

You will now see the Authentication Bar load up in the background, but you will now be prompted to enter your Username (Donation #), once you enter that hit OK.

You will now be prompted to enter your Password (Donation #), once again you will have to hit OK. In some cases it will look like you have entered your Password incorrectly with a red "X".

This is ok, all you have to do it reset your MAG device at this point, and reload the portal. The Authentication Bar will pop up on the screen and will load like normal into the NFPS portal. You should only be prompted to enter your Username/Password (Donation #) once per MAC change. If you are prompted for your Username/Password more than once it is likely you have entered the incorrect information.

A reboot is recommended after Authentication details have been entered in correctly.

--------------------------------------------------

AVOV units:

If you already have the NFPS server information in your device, go to the settings area where you enter all your Portal information to log into NFPS servers.

At this point all you will have to do is edit your current information and hit the "Credentials" field and this will give you access to enter your Username/Password (Donation #). Save your information and reboot your device. It should connect without issue at this point.

As for specific details on AVOV TVonline V2 / AVOV TVonline+ / AVOV VIXO 1 / AVOV VIXO 2 I would suggest looking in the AVOV section on the forums for further assistance. The above information is the general guide to adding Username/Password Authentication to those units.

For stb emulators, does anyone know where the username/password information will be entered

A updated stb will be out soon to accommodate user name/ password

[Daniel 9]

Do I understand the username and password
will be the 12 digit donation number. (of course linked to the mac address of the box)
not the 18 digit number called trac order number that started with 330 in my donations or as paiao states can also start with 192

And that number is the username
and that same number will be placed on the password line also

Also use the new STB emulator soon to be released for better performance
please clarify if my understanding is correct for my NFPS avov1, avov2, tv online box units in my case.
Thank you for your support.

[DarkSide]

yes thats correct... user/pass is your donation number

[Marley]

yea avov products will work just to ez server setting ok to edit server then hit use credentials and add your 12 or 13 donation numbers to both and save thats if your running already

[Pionex2020]

hopefully this is the end of all the bozos who were stressing the server by getting it free. Good things hopefully will come from this.

I agree 100%

[grodri1972]

[big dady]

I bought from reseller and he won't send donation number what can i do??

[Farmer1]

I bought from reseller and he won't send donation number what can i do??

[grodri1972]

Gotta agree with you guys thanks for your help

[grodri1972]

One quick question if i buy from 11.iptv how can i link my mac address to new route

[catz]

[casper]

Iam in the dark! With plenty of days left on my donations

You probably have but im going to ask anyways..... have you linked your Mac address to the donation? http://ftabeta.com/showthread.php?t=75541
If you already have then disregard.

[casper]

Yes, I did, and it's telling me that MAC address is already linked to my donations.
I am not an expert on this, but I'm assuming, that someone pulled the trigger before Feb 1.
Also when you check your donations, the iptv url is different from where it used to be! Very confusing,
Still down with plenty time left.

[big dady]

Casper try re-linking your mac to your donation
