"I followed the troubleshooting steps dara suggested"

I got some help from crazed and ilan but I'm still getting this error "Stalker Client Authentication failed retrying"

Here is what was in my log, any help is greatly appreciated...I've near the verge of giving up and buying a Dreamlink T1/Mag254

[duhhud]

i believe it is, portal.iptvrocket.tv/stalker_portal/c/index.html....not portal.iptvrocket/stalker_portal/c/index.html.....so add the .tv after iptvrocket

[ilan]

Correct, Duhhud.

If you are using Kodi 15 or older, it is

http://11.iptvrocket.tv

If you are using Kodi 16+, its is

http://portal.iptvrocket.tv/stalker_portal/c/index.html

I am running Stalker Client 1.0.8. Can anyone give me a hand with this?

[ilan]

Has it ever worked with the channels? I'm not sure if the cache read error at the beginning is a sign of corruption in the pvr.

No sir...I've never gotten it to work at all...I've tried everything, I've walked through dara's tutorial write ups as well. I posted a thread in the Emulator section and am about to download it now....not sure if its the right one or not. If i can't get it to work within the next hour I'm ordering a Mag254. I've had the subscription for a week and haven't been able to load one channel

[ilan]

It very well may be corruption in the PVR or Kodi. If you don't have much installed as far as add-ons, it might be worth deleting Kodi and reinstalling.

Can't say for sure that will do it, but if PVR Stalker is correctly configured and everything is copacetic with the account and the ISP, it should connect without issue.

i just reinstalled kodi for the second time and I'm getting the same thing....i just grabbed another mxq box i had and am trying it on this box now. if it doesn't work I'm just going to order an iptv box...I was about to order the mag254 last night, but i couldn't decide between it and the dreamlink t1? any suggestions?
