Not sure mate but you can use usb to update cfg?

yes but im trying to enter it manually as im helping a friend who lives miles away and we are tring to enter via remote
 
why not enter cline into a .cfg file and send it to him..tell him to put it on a usb and use the box to load it...?

you can format pen drive on mac in fat32 to use in pc or in yr case the f3 box see below

1. Connect the USB with Mac USB port
2. Wait for a while till the USB read
3. When the USB, go to your Mac drive and press right click on that pen drive
4. There you got a format option.
5. Click on that, wait for few minutes and the USB has been formatted

ok formatted and notepad file on there with n line in and renamed it CCcam.cfg but the box aint finding the file?
 
is the file type CFG File (.cfg) ?..try using EditPad lie to create the cfg file..put it on usb stick...put stick in usb slot at front of box...then follow this below this is for the F3 box, but im assuming it would be more or less the same on f5

CLINE SETUP
1: Go back to main menu
2: Select Network..press 6666 on remote to get to hidden menu..
3: Select "CCcam Client Setup"
4: If you have a cccam.cfg on your usb, select 'Update files by usb'
5: On new window, highlight 'CCcam.cfg', press green button on remote (ADD). This will place a tick by it, the press yellow button on remote (READ)
6: Once finished, select 'Manage Config Files' and on new window select cccam.cfg again
7: A new page comes up with your cline on it, press green button on remote to make it active (tick should appear by it) Exit out of all menus to tv and select a pay channel.. it should clear, if not go back into menu, select Network, then 'Network Setup', and turn DHCP 'off' by using arrow keys and then hitting apply.
8: if channel still doesnt clear, reboot box and router by unplugging both from power and plugging back in (router first)

it is similar to f3 box...see HERE how to add line...like i said similar....lol
 
true...its the same though as the info above..

ok apparently it doesnt need the c: when typing in? is that correct?
anyway tried it without and does not work but im wondering on user and pass do i still need to ad the 01 02 03 ext? and if so where do i enter this
 
: for those who didnt create a cccam.cfg on their usb, you can add it manually..


a] instead of update by usb on ccccam client setup, go directly to Manage Config Files and select CCcam.cfg from new window
b] Press Blue button on remote
c] your cline will look something like this>>> C: example.cline.org 12000 user pass
d] ON add cline window, leave Protocol as CCcam
e] Host: here you would enter example.cline.org portion of your cline using remote number buttons like you was sending a text ;)
f] Port: here you put 12000
g] User, write 'user' here
f: Password, write 'pass' here
g] : A new page comes up with your cline on it, press green button on remote to make it active (tick should appear by it) Exit out of all menus to tv and select a pay channel.. it should clear, if not go back into menu, select Network, then 'Network Setup', and turn DHCP 'off' by using arrow keys and then hitting apply.
