My new BUZZtv box will not connect to my router, and it does not give me a url - so therefore I cannot connect to the Internet provider - (which is SPECTRUM)

The box is HARDWIRED with Cat 6 cable.

I have switched cat 6 cables with the MAG254 and tried to connect. It does not.

I have used the SPECTRUM password that is on their SAGECOM FAST 6250 - (**********) it does not work

I am beginning to suspect that my modem is incompatible with the Buzztv box.

Have spoke to SPECTRUM and to BUZZTV - both of whom state that the Buzztv box should connect.

Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong?

It means that I have tried ALL three CAT 6 cables going to devices. I have ensured that they all are connected to Sagecom router and all show that they are correctly seated. One of the Cat 6 cables is connected to my MAG254, one is connected to a "HELLOBOX SATELLITE RECEIVER" and the third is for the BUZZTV. The MAG254 is working as is the Hellobox as I write this. There is no problems with these two units, just with the BUZZTV box.

On the "CONFIGURE ETHERNET DEVICES" I have the following:-

Ethernet Devices - eth0
DHCP - is selected
Static - i not selected
mac address - ac:db:da:55:xx:xx - (Numbers/letters are in the xx spots)
Netmask - 255.255.255.0
DNS - 2607:F428:FFFF:FFFF:2
GATEWAY - 192.168.1.1

The DNS numbers do not appear to be correct, could this be the problem?

also, if its not a combo modem then just bypass router and directly connect your buzz with modem and see if that works. if it does then if you can reset your router and try again via router.:)

Not sure if I have modem and a router. I have two SPECTRUM boxes, one is a "SAGECOM FAST 5260" and an "ARRIS", which I understand is for the telephone. The cat 6 cable comes direct from the Sagecom and goes to the Buzztv box. I have always "assumed" that the Sagecom box was a modem/router.

I have factory re-set the Buzztv box. It uploaded six programs.

BUT

EVERYTHING IS AS IT WAS BEFORE I DID THAT.

I still do not get a server url. Where do I find this? Maybe I am looking in the wrong place/s.

ok I don't know what server you are using but try to watch this video and use your server where this person in video enters theirs. then let us know what happens

Do not understand what is meant by - "ok, I dont know what server you are using ...." My internet service provider is SPECTRUM. I have both phone and internet with them. I have mentioned this in my previous emails, so do not understand the question of "don't know what server you are using". Am I supposed to be using some other "server" to get this buzztv to work?

you need to subscribe iptv service first. once you get your credentials/donation/username or whatever you want to call with your URL then you go to your buzz and follow the way you saw on video.
this site offers 3 different kind of services.
here are the names. 1- NFPS 2- Rocket 3-iptv66
Code: 
http://iptvtalk.net/forumdisplay.php?5-IPTV-Private-Servers

go to this thread and check each service then go and subscribe first then comeback and we will help you further.
my favorite is NFPS. so here is the link if you don't want to read all 3.
Code: 
https://iptvprivateserver.is

I have gone to HTTPS:privateserver.is and tried to pay. Immediate problems, they do not accept any CARDS from Bank of America. I have paid off all of my credit cards and I only have one credit card and its a BOA card and its a Mastercard. So had to go to Walmart and buy a pre-paid card, now when trying to pay they require that I upload a drivers licence - there are no instructions on how to do this. Tried the Bitcoin system but had problems with it also.

So the question is - IS THERE ANOTHER WAY TO PAY FOR THIS SERVICE?

if you can go to internet and buy cheap prepaid plan and order cheap phone from ebay and you are good to go.:) if you get then buy life time donation so you wont have to go through this process ever again.
