Help with box id

[gamer_4_life]

Am trying to use my sky uk card in my dm800 have what I believe is my correct box id, but I get everything including hd package except sky sports 1-4 and sky movies. I have used both the serial number in the menu of sky box and also the number on the sticker on the bottom of the box and have a match which makes me believe I have my box id. Have also entered my pin number to Eliminate this too. Everything points to the box id being incorrect from what I'm reading online but can't see why i get a match using 2 different ways to retrieve my box id.

Take your boxid under the skybox, then convert it to hexa !
Google for n*d*s box key generator !

Or use Oscam, no need for boxkey.

Yeah have done both those options already but as I said it's just these 2 lots of channels missing but thanks for the reply

out of interest try oscam as passete has suggusted, also see what it says your card and box number are and compare to what your results are so far

in your browser login to your dreambox ip like the following

_http://192.168.0.15:8080/users.htm

where ip 15 is the box fixed ip , change to your box ip as required as it does vary amongst routers

this will give you your control panel for oscam

select readers

then in action , second from left select show entitlements if you wish to read entitlement expiry dates etc

this will prove its working ok

now restart oscam and look in status and I think its displayed at the start

[saintomer1866]

first of all are all your channels now opening ?

to get your box id go to;

http://your.dreambox.ip:8080/readers.html

then click on 'show entitlement' under the action section
this will give you the information you want and also show you when your entitlements are due to expire

I must start learning to type with two fingers, it would be so much quicker !

Have tried connecting with browser but cant get connection. Am I correct with the section for this being [web if] in oscam.conf file or is it somewhere else?

[saintomer1866]

yes you're correct

[webif]
httpport                      = 8080
httpuser                      = username
httppwd                       = password
httpallowed                   = 192.168.x.xx

where 192.168.x.xx is your pc ip

have the correct box id but found the so called installed cam CCcam + oscam is not correct and is only CCCam so once I put box id in CCcam.cfg all channels opened so need to install oscam now. but thanks for the help but found my issue now. The Cams came installed with the image alreday on the box when I got it so presumed was all working, how wrong was I.
