It's definitly not illegal......to reset a STB back to defaults.
I have STB that has been used in conjunction with a filter.
The previous owner of the STB has now gone SKY and given me the kit minus the filter. Now...if I was to plug the box back in (minus filter) it would send all the stored info back to the supplier thus charging me for all the PAY As You Go channels watched.
I have found out various different techniques to reset most STB via the net except
of course this one.
By pressing the on button and variations of other keys on different STB's you can reset back to default settings completely refreshing the chip.
As in my first post I said : this STB is silver and all my TV kit is silver/chrome
so it would be nice to remove the blue/black STB and put this one in its place.
Phew.......!
