Authentication Problem????

[wkproctor]

I just turned on my mag 254 and it is giving Authentication problem? I Used the same Mac Address that it gives me when I choose my Network info in system settings.....should I load my routers Mac address instead?

Respectfully,

wkproctor

[K00lKatT]

the box mac is correct...

[wkproctor]

Then why is it giving Authentication Problem?

[K00lKatT]

it could very well be someone using stalker client or stb emu has used that mac and is logged in...we were just down for awhile so I suggest you try again and reboot entire system. modem/router and box, thks

[wkproctor]

Thank you very much

[K00lKatT]

welcome....

[wkproctor]

The device info shows a different Mac Address then the Mac Address in System/Network Info/ current status screen.... I have tried both but neither cleared the authentication problem error.

[K00lKatT]

so I assume you're running wireless??

[Marley]

we were down the time you were asking all should be good now

[wkproctor]

Yes I am using wireless

[K00lKatT]

My opinion is still use the box mac..which did you link and where did you purchase your box...

[K00lKatT]

I would also upgrade to 218r11 if you haven't...

[wkproctor]

I tried both and I purchased my box from A Romanian Dealer in New Jersey

[wkproctor]

Firmware has been updated.

[Marley]

then the only thing is you have the wrong url check it if your not up should be what are you using

[K00lKatT]

at the present time I have only linked my avov, my mag254 is unlinked and working fine on the service right now...

[wkproctor]

Ok I will Check Url: the Url is http://1.iptvprivateserver.tv

[wkproctor]

Then I guess my best bet is to unlink my Mac Address if no link is working fine right now?

[Marley]

sorry getting that too hold off for sec

[Marley]

yea i would do the mac address and id try that i will do the same and see if it works again sorry up on the avov on all boxes

[793bob]

Getting same error on mine .mine is hard wired .it was taking forever for channels to load so I rebooted the box then the crazy authentication error .i am only running version r3 .is it worth upgrading to 11.

[Marley]

something is up wish i could tell you

[Sparky_SC]

In the last hour, first the Mag254 just wouldn't load the portal at all, like the server wasn't reponding. I rebooted a couple times with the same result. Now, about a hour later, it begins booting then throws the Authentication Problem error message. It appears they are having server issues.

In the past when server issues have happened, various mods made a slew of wrong guesses with peoples problems, only to finally find out later it was indeed a server problem. The mods, although they attempt to help, appear to be pretty much in the dark as much as anyone when it comes to first hand information on the server. TIne appears to be the exception.

I would set tight and be patient, not fool with the box for a while. The odds are pretty high that the problem will be resolved.

[wkproctor]

Until this morning The 11 was working fine for me 793bob I actually think their going to mac addresses for authentication of legit donors is going to be a problem for everyone eventually.

[wkproctor]

Thx Sparky_Sc I believe you are correct in your assumptions ...guess I will wait and hope they can get their crap together soon.

[Marley]

yea its a wait and see lots saying that funny thing its only the mag box running great on avov

[wkproctor]

Well Thanks to everyone for their posts. Hopefully it will come around soon otherwise people start to hate systems with problems and try something else. Avov may be the way to go asft.

[Marley]

it still free so get over it day you pay then cry they been working hard to fix all the problems give them time

[K00lKatT]

avov is down at this time also...if you don't want our help or opinions you are in the wrong place, sparky, perhaps you would be more comfortable elsewhere...nuff said

[K00lKatT]

BTW, the avov uses exactly the same middleware as infomir(mag) do and it's proprietary, thks..

[Sparky_SC]

it still free so get over it day you pay then cry

LOL I knew that was coming !

Seriously though, I have taken the position that it still is in development and not a final product just yet. It certainly is worth every penny we are paying. Will the problems persist when the service goes paid? Time will tell, keep your ear to the ground and remain hopefull. I am concerned (not crying) that as the system gets closer to going paid the service seems to be gaining features and loosing in reliability, and it appears the time for going paid is getting closer.

I certainly hope reliability improves when/before the system goes live as a paid service. I already have rockets paid, the decision will be if I will want to renew them.

Ummmmm I didn't ask for opinions, or post a request for help. I just watch and take note. I prefer facts to opinions, we ALL know what they say about opinions. LOL

[Marley]

look just so you know one of the rules are not bad month any server period and yes you do have your opinions not going to stop you from saying things that's what you believe in that why i didn't delete it but keep it up and i think you will know what will happen you do have your right and so do I

[apclarke87]

Yes I am using wireless
i went online and put in my MAC address should i change from iptvprivateserver.tv?

[K00lKatT]

no AP, there's probs right now...they appear to be getting better as I type this...

If I read your post correct, you are saying that reporting facts from previous server outages is considered bad mouthing? The last time a Authentication Problem came up, there was a thread very similar, with a lot of wrong info posted and later corrected when found to be a server issue. I am sure you know the thread, I can post a link if desired. That is not a opinion, it is a fact, documented right here in this forum in that very thread. Perhaps you should delete that thread?

As for the threat of "knowing what will happen", understand one thing...... Many here average 4 posts a hour, 24 hours a day, for over a half a year ! Perhaps they don't have a life outside this forum but I certainly do and this forum is more entertainment to me than anything. If it makes you feel important then you do as you see fit. I stand by my latest posts as being factual, helpfull and above all truthfull.

[Sparky_SC]

Yes, symptoms are changing, slowly improving. They appear to be getting things under control. I no longer get the Authentication Problem, it just stops shy of a complete boot.

[K00lKatT]

and I might add you have a very modest opinion of yourself...my opinion is I won't miss you when you're gone, thks..

I would remind you to read the rules, in particular: •There will be no posts meant to offend or hurt any other member, in a manner which is offensive or inflammatory.

Do the rules not apply to all? You have made a great many similar posts in the past aimed at other forum users. Lets all obey the rules ! thks.

Now lets return to on topic posts.

[K00lKatT]

there was nothing inflammatory about my post, and as your previous posts state, we are all entitled to our opinions...you have mine, thks..

[Sparky_SC]

Tried another reboot of the Mag 254, symptoms changed again. Authentication Problem error message remains gone, portal boot progress bar now does not move at all (a while back it 3/4 completed before it stalled).
Things are obviously changing which probably means somone is hot on the trail of the problem. My plan is to simply wait until later tonight and give it another try. Good things take time, as they say.

[Syed]

I have problem with MAG 254 asking Authentication Login & Password, how it can resolve?

[Marley]

ez to do make sure you mac address is from the box have good donation and make sure you use the right url

[Bkman2020]
