Hello all, after about 2-3 weeks of struggling with my Mag254, I'm throwing in the towel. I have only connected to the server 3 times. I've gone into the bios and resetting the unit, changed Mac addy then back, checked Internet, made a donation for a new rocket and successfully loaded Mac addy, contacted Papio ( they answered my email very promptly) and did their best with suggesting things to try, still nothing. All that happens is the yellow bar starts to climb, then "authentication Problem", then nothing. My uneducated guess is since all I have is satellite internet (xplornet, very stable & I'm pleased), and the ping times that run around 700-800ms, therein lies my problem. Can someone tell me if I can use a laptop, download files ?????, install, setup ( point me to proper files and try before buying a Xbmc/kodi unit? Maybe this method may work. Thank you all!
