    rajraju,glad you took the plunge mate.once you have the uk firmware in the box it should work.in your ip setup are the boxes all filled out(mask,gateway,etc)are you connected from box to router with cable.i have to go now will be back later.

    Did you change I-stream to U-stream. Put Carling 1.03 STVU6 firmware on box.
    http://www.4shared.com/dir/6791846/54781b9c/sharing.html
    Make sure IPsetup is set to auto
    After flashing 1.03 Fac-reset, auto-scan.
    If necessary re-boot router & box
    Just wondering Raj could there be an issue with server because box was already connected
    to Irish server. Mickah might have some knowledge on this.

    That may not be the problem Raj, you don't give much detail in your posts.
    Have you flashed Carling 1.03 on the box
    Have you selected U-stream in network
    Have you turned on auto-updates in emu
    Have you set ip-setup to auto
    Post back with details & someone will help you

    Think you are going to have to fill in values in IP-setup manually, or reset Network card on PC
    At the moment IP-setup is set at auto. Are any of the lines not filled in e.g. mac address.
    Easy option if you have console connected to internet is to note all values of IP-config in
    console menu. Disconnect console from internet, Change SV6 IP-setup to manual & enter all
    console values in SV6 IP-setup.Make sure to save. Reboot router & box. If box works console
    can be re-connected to internet by auto-connect.
    If you don't have console check IP/config on PC & enter values in SV6 Except IP address has to have last no. different than all other IP addresses in use
    To reset network card on PC look in control panel & disable then enable any LAN connections
    listed

    Suppose you have tried re-booting box & router. Did you use this firmware Carling 1.03
    http://www.4shared.com/file/PsquGhaY/CARLING-103.html?
    Are any lines in IP-setup not filled in. You may have to manually fill in values if box
    won't connect when set to AUTO in IP-setup

    Maybe his box has been banned from the server i have heard of a few of them like that even lincsat has one and he is a supplier totally unreliable boxes in my mind and no support from anyone for them.

    could be the time is up on them perhaps? if he bought them from Ireland, the time could be up on em perhaps, just a suggestion..... depending when the box was first activated of course, but they had em early in Ireland, before the UK if my memory serves me right

    is it possible he bought them from Ireland ?? as i thought that is what i read somewhere if so its possible the 12 mth sub has expired on them remember Ireland got there boxes first so that could be a possibility

    also i would try a factory default on box then box by box flash them and try and get them 1 by one on the net it could also be that the server thinks he is using clone boxes as he is using 4 from the same ip im not sure but that is a starting point

    he has 4 of these boxes he bought of this site,none work,he bought them over a month ago.i thought those boxes first appeared back in early march in ireland so he should have some life in them still.all rajraju and badboy need to do is try the boxes in a mates house that currently have a starview working,this will determine if it is a fault with the box or the set up.[[[four boxes bought in ireland]]
