MAG 256/257 Technical Issues

[Dragowich]

Alright, I fixed it
For everyone suffering from the "wrong signature" problem, pull the cable, press the menu button, put in the cable, hold it until it enters BIOS, then update from the USB through the recovery/BIOS screen. It'll work then.

Menu button??

Is is always the same ! People ask first, without searching in this forum. There are thousands of questions and answers in hundreds of threads - mostly you will find your answer if you are searching.

But it is easier to ask and steal the time of other people. I do not answer any more if I could find the answer easly if I am searching - not even provide the answer link

When I add mac address to portal and restart mag box 256 it says stb blocked...

 

[Rocky Shah]

Very common for STB to be blocked as the sub has run out or you gave wrong mac code to supplier

I have double checked the mac and it is ok. And the sub is still active.

The Mag256 will only say its BLOCKED if the server sees that the sub has run out

Has the client given you the right Mac Code?
The person before had the same problems and his friend had given WRONG MAC CODE
Once he changed it to the right Mac Code its working fine

This is wonderful THE RESELLER doesn't even apreciate us helping them (evan a small message wether it helped them or not would have meant a lot to us trying to help) seems like they are very quick to ask, but never to appreciate us

Yeah make sure to take the mac from device info NOT from network settings.

All, I am trying to add a new MAG and getting the error message that the requested DATA does not match? Any idea why?
