Re: Cannot register new PC

Two things here:

1) I don't think you should be able to reach autoreg.autoregister.net from a registering STB PC, there wouldn't be a route back and DNS lookup wouldn't work (well, it would give you 172.16.30.83/4). Will check this out though.

2) STB reg is definitely totally unconnected from SACM reg, and yes it does generally run better for various reasons.

Well it definately worked for me last night. I knew my account password but found it would only accept it in uppercase. Perhaps its just a Manchester thing, It was my daughters brand new lappy, downloaded 25 MB of Windows updates for XP and masses of other stuff without any problems.
