P.i.n

I dont know the pin on my PACE box.

In my recent action to set a pin on the adult channels i was given three atempts to enter the password, however like an idiot and not reading the screen i though i was entering a new password.

Know i have 1 chance to enter the correct password, i was thinking to enter the usual default pin of 1234, what will hapen if this is wrong?
__________________

OK! before i posted i did a search for pin, nothing came up.

looking down the page i spoted a similar post, what i need to know know is that if i get it wrong on this third time (allowed three) will i be locked out for good or for temp period?????

Re: P.i.n

You get locked out for a [temp] period of time - which I think is 1 hour.

Re: P.i.n

I suspect that a phone call to CS would enable you to reset the password, provided you can give CS details of your account, and it's password!

Re: P.i.n

I dunno I didn't write the software

At least that way you aren't completely locked out of your STB. So you can continue to do evrything else.

Someone who is involved with the software told people here: http://www.chetnet.co.uk/portal/foru...94&postcount=7
