Skybox unlocking issues

[hughmchugh]

***ANY HELP GREATLY APPRECIATED***

Trying to access the camds setup menu on my skybox f5, tried the 6666 unlock remedy (as well as a few other codes) which haven't worked for me. Tried to upgrade the firmware to fix this but with was met with a firmware mismatch error message. From trawling through the forums it points to the skybox being cloned.

Cloned skybox f5's are something that I know nothing about. So does anyone know what I need to do to be able to access the camds setup menu? Or are there any codes out there that will maybe unlock the menu? (Supplier of the skybox has disappeared of eBay so cannot contact he or she)

Apologies to the admins if this breaks any rules but I am at a stage of desperation

Cheers

Hugh

When you go to menu > network local setting, make sure that you are not pressing the OK button first before pressing 6666.

What firmware have you currently got on your box (menu > tools > information > software ver.)?

If other menus also require a password, then 3327 is the master password.

Thanks Hadron,

Feel like an idiot that something as simple as that was the issue!!! But most importantly everything is up and running now. Cheers.

I had the issue with the 6666 code not working, if you plug a usb drive in then the option appears.
