There is no password set on TM500/600 as new. You set your own. Use Tewchnomate control centre.

Your right mate

Use Putty tel or other Telnet program to set a password.

Programs like DCC and some FTP progams need a password setiing before they can be used.

The UR team image also has no password set.

Try with putty attached mate.

Start putty
Tick the telnet box
Enter the IP of the TM and click open.
At the prompt type root
At password promt hit enter don't input anything

If all goes well you'll now be at root.

Type passwd then enter, it will prompt for a new pass enter and repeat.

Not you'll not see any input when entering the password. it should report password changed.

not so much the box but everything involved in watching certain channels.
apart from only having a s#y dish just now i carnt get my head around what i need to do with emu's, keys etc etc. its quite mind boggling just now but i am reading and learning bit by bit.
its just that theres a lot more to all this than i ever imagined and i do wonder if i bought the best box to learn all this
