Authentication failed / Kodi 16.0 Alpha 4 / Stalker Client .0.9.7

[ziggy6]

I have gone thru many threads and have tried every possible solution to no avail. My MAC is using 00 1A 78 XX XX XX, which I have changed multiple times with TV off, reset up the client using 13 digit alpha characters for serial, device 1, 2 and signature. I have tried many different URL'S with no success. My log below tells a better story.

I think there is a redirect issue with that version. Use the following for the portal URL if you are not already:

NFPS - http://portal.iptvprivateserver.tv/stalker_portal/c/
Rocket -  http://portal.iptvrocket.tv/stalker_portal/c/
IPTV66  - http://mw1.iptv66.tv/stalker_portal/c/

Alucard, I cannot thank you enough...that was it, once I had the correct URL it worked like a champ

Alucard, Thank you. I was struggling to get it going after new kodi update. With your post save my times. Nice post. Again thank you.

MAC mismatch

I think there is a redirect issue with that version. Use the following for the portal URL if you are not already:

NFPS - http://portal.iptvprivateserver.tv/stalker_portal/c/
Rocket -  http://portal.iptvrocket.tv/stalker_portal/c/
IPTV66  - http://mw1.iptv66.tv/stalker_portal/c/

I ran into same issue. Im using the Rocket url, since i am running Kodi 16 beta 4. The mac format i am using is 00:1A:78:XX:XX:XX. I keep getting "Authentication Failed" Mac address mismatch." Any ideas?
