Hi Guys,

Try this one. It made life easier for me to get access again on IPTV Stalker.
It work like charm for me.
If I can do it, you can do it.

Since everybody knows how to get to the settings of IPTV Stalker by clicking "Configure"
Click on "Send Serial Number"
Do not click on the "Custom Serial"
Just click on "OK"
Close IPTV

Go back to "Kodi" main page.
Not sure if we are still require to do this next step, but I still went on to do it co'z it might help.
Highlight "Program"
Click "Maintenance tool"
Click on "General Maintenance"
Click "Clear Cache"
When done click "Ok"
Then reboot your Android Box.
Go back to Kodi
Click on IPTV Stalker.

DO NOT FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

This thread is on how to prevent hijackers in hijacking your MAC. These instructions will send serial numbers based on your MAC so anyone that has your MAC and enables just the send serial number can still use your MAC. You have to use the custom serial number and fill in the fields as in the OP to secure your MAC and prevent hijacking of your MAC.

I am deleting posts that do not follow the suggested approach as posted by Alucard. If you found another way, feel free to post it in another thread, as they do not prevent your MAC from being hijacked.

Does the Device # and serial #'s have to be the same? Do they need to contain letters and numbers? I have changed the MAC at least 10 times and I'm still getting an authorization failed

I am using a windows pc and kodi 15.1 Git. I made up my own serial number of 13 figures, 5 lower case letters, and 8 random numbers, is this correct? I also have custom serial checked. What do I put in these blocks - Device ID 1 & 2, and the Signature.

thanks!

Your serial sounds fine. Alucard answered your other question in the prior post.

--------
Device ID 1: Random Alphanumeric. Min 4 characters
Device ID 2: Random Alphanumeric. Min 4 characters
Signature: Random Alphanumeric. Min 4 characters
---------

Thus, something like

ID 1: 8345C
ID 2: 4903B
Sig: yuck13

@ig1151 -- Does the Device # and serial #'s have to be the same?

No, I would not make them the same. In fact, if you have ID 1 and ID 2 the same, I believe you will get an authorization error.
