Cheers, Mike

The problem is the icecrypt box is cheap and nasty and you cannot change the biss key manually. Do yourself a favour and buy a technomate box, you can change the biss with the remote control in a few seconds.
This is the technomate forum after all..
Apologies for posting in the wrong place. I was searching for BISS Key info and this came up - didn't realise it was a Technomate Forum! However for the benefit of others who may make the same mistake the ICECRYPT can easily change the key with the remote - took me 20 seconds including inputting the key and all working. Thanks for all the other input. BTW - Which Technomate for a simple solution?

I had an Icecrypt S1600 and a S3200 could never fathom how to change the key without upgrading the firmware, so how do you do it?
As for the Technomate, either the F3/5 or the 5402HD, they are pretty much the same but in different cases, the F3/5 only has a USB on the front though, personally I would choose the 5402HD I have two, an M2 and an M3.
'Cos they're cheap? 32€ in the trade.

Yes, cheap and nasty! There are a few 'installers' around here putting them in and charging technomate money for it.
Ha ha, wait till they've got a few dozen of them out & have to go round every one with a USB stick to update the keys every time.
No need for USB stick - simple instructions and takes less than a minute. I have quite a few people who have followed my lead and all but my 85 year old mother can do it but then that's why she has a son that can do it for her. I am useful sometimes.

Well? How is it done then?
Go to Menu on Remote
Select>conditional access >CA Setting>brings up the Card Info screen. On that screen type 1407>Key edit>BBCBISS>enter new key 16 characters> OK to save . Menu to exit ALL DONE
