Starview HD fix for blank MAC address + 'Bricked SVHD'

THIS IS FOR THE STARVIEW HD COMBO + ONLY IF YOURS DOES NOT HAVE A LAN PORT DO NOT USE THIS FIX!!!!!


You will need:

A computer with a serial port

A Null modem 9 pin serial cable (as used on the starview 1 - 3)

The following file: NEW FILE COMING SOON!!!

Once you have the above:

Connect the SV HD to the computer using the serial cable and attach to mains (leave turned off by switch on back)

UNZIP the file downloaded

open HD-200_Download.exe

Choose COM 1 (unless you have connected it to a different port)

Select software (HD300N_SC_RS232_1.bin)

Turn on receiver with rear switch

bar will start counting to 100%

WAIT UNTIL SOFTWARE SAYS COMPLETE!!!!

Turn off receiver and back on

P.S. This will also recover 'bricked' SVHD's (if there are any lights still on)

Once complete the receiver will be as factory provided.

If your Starview HD has lost its MAC address this is what you need to do next:

Go to accessory - network - ip config

Set IP to manual

You can now edit the MAC address back to the original receivers address - Your mac address is on a sticker inside the receiver (you can see it through the vents on the top)

apply then exit.

Then you can start from scratch loading which ever firmware you choose.

I hope this helps

did you read what he said

 

one more thing if your putting Guinness_HD+_Combo_With_Cccam_Fix_0524.UAD on it
Go to accessory - network - ip config

Set IP to auto and change the mac and apply it will help to stop your mac getting knocked out to 0A -- -- -- thats what i did and ok

You can now edit the MAC address back to the original receivers address - Your mac address is on a sticker inside the receiver (you can see it through the vents on the top)

 

been playing with it he had settings wrong thats all the rest was ok

 

but what about the people that tried it and bricked their boxes?

 

i use it 7 times then worked out why i was get 0A -- -- MAC it was change the mac in
manual not in auto and after you put Guinness_HD+_Combo_With_Cccam_Fix_0524.UAD on it
and go to turn the net on you have to turn the auto on that mac gets kicked out so if you set it in auto you just go to net see it on auto and back out, its the 0A-00-00-00 that there getting

 

he said post back to him did he not,as in post 9

 

he did yes which would probanly be the best thing to do

 

i was on this for 5 hours i had the A0-00-00-00 now on and going good again

 

good to hear that you got your box going again,

 

thanks mate it took 5 hours
