Setting up a new receiver has gone smoothly thanks to the many helpful stickies, with one MAJOR exception. After entering the server information I get the "server is connected" message (so far so good). On exit the message box pops up saying "Connection OK ()". Nothing in the brackets! Is there something more I need to do to enable a server? I get exactly the same behavior with bins 116, 118, and 119.

Also, I know my server account is activated since I can connect to it with a different stb.

Any ideas or suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks.

After you place info and get connect exit and then you need to click on the server slot you put info and using the right arrow and you should see the ip address or domain you are using.Once you do that exit and it will ask you to save.Then you should see the connect message with the server # you are using.

Thankyou for the help. That did it! It's something I haven't seen in any of the "how-to"s, and also answers the qyestion others have had about how to disable a server. Much appreciated!
