was just a shot in dark as i dont use this router or this service and was
trying to be helpful


How the hell is mentioning ANYTHING about the PC helpful? IT HAS
NOTHING AT ALL TO DO WITH THE PC. Do you even have a remote grasp of
how a connection works when you use a Router instead of a modem
connected to the PC?

if not and you are sure you entered it all ok then its down to
sky
however as a back up .
check that your av/firewall progs aint blocking it (disable is
quickest test)
once had this prob with tiny firewall :-)

HELLO. DUMB ****. It's a ****ing router. The router isn't
syncing.
It's got **** all to do with the PC.

Still as ignorant as ever I see.


But he does have a point the OP did say that the sync light is not
coming on & how is a firewall on a PC going to affect that, I
wonder
(not)..

Shot in the dark equates to being helpful, don't think so.
If you don't know then don't post as it's better to be silent &
thought a fool than to post & prove that you are one.

bit more than you are doing though


Nope wrong again as I was pointing out the error of your post not
condoning the language originally used to point it out to you, but it
doesn't take long for you to go to that level, does it see below

as for the foul mouthed fool you mention
are you his lover?


Nope but I bet he was yours but you fell out with them because he
didn't buy you that pink handbag you wanted for Christmas.

Moral of the story is think before you feverishly post a load of
******** & don't complain that when you do someone tells you in no
uncertain terms that you have.

Nope it way past yours, or have you been on the 'sauce' again, don't
let your mother know that you're stealing her stash.

Question.... how on earth does a firewall installed on a PC (or MAC)
affect the ability of a router to synch up with the DSLAM at the
exchange(I'll give you a very big clue it doesn't). The OP was not
talking about getting on the internet they were talking about the very
basic of synch'ing up.

Now go to bed like the naughty boy that you are or santa will take all
your toys away, like he does with all simpletons trying to make out
that they know more than they do.

Ah yes the site which has a banner proclaiming the pleasures of AOL
wifi broadband on it's first page (problem is that it's £4.99
dearer
and depending on who they're using for a carrier it can be slower).


Yep it's a free site and thus carries advertising to fund the site's
maintanence and development. Proves that the site is definitely not
linked to BSkyB.


Pity they don't appear to be able to get the login sorted out.

I gave up after 3 resets in 24 hours, mind you I have sent a post to
the people who run the site, so we'll see what transpires...

If you give me your username for skyuser.co.uk and i'll log in and PM the
site owner. He'll look into it pretty quick for you.

Your username on here is kráftéé, there is a user on the memberlist of
káftéé (ie without the r) is that you?

Hi Kraftee,

Just to clarify, we did receive an email saying

I am repeatedly unable to login, each time I ask for a reset & that
allows me in for one session, in which I change the supplied password
to one I can remember only to find that the next time I try & login again I can't.
It's almost as bad as SKY supplying me with a password which doesn't
work on the broadband part of their site but does on others. I
eventually cracked that one so a little help please so I can frequent
this forum a little more often...


with the user id of

IP Address: 90.194.2xx.xxx
User Name: Unregistered
User ID: 0


Which is obviously you, We checked your IP address to see if we could
find out your username and manually activate it. Our forum software,
shows us no Username with the IP address you sent the message from.

If you would like me to activate your account, please email me
newsreader @ skyuser.co.uk and I will sort out for you.

As for the AOL advertising, we use their money to pay for our site, so
we will never have to charge our members. If you cannot understand this
concept than fine. You have a choice to click on an advert or ignore
it.

Perhaps if you would have given us the username that you signed up for
we could have resolved this quicker, as we are no good at reading
minds, also just for further clarification, out of 4100 members you are
the only one to report this problem.

On further investigation:

You have registered as káftéé and not kráftéé, in other words you
spelt your own name wrong.

The following message was sent to you via the SkyUser - The unofficial
support forum for everything Sky! Contact Us form by kráftéé.


When you search for the user name kráftéé on our software, we get
"No Users Matched Your Query"

When you emailed us, you filled in kráftéé on the contact form and
not káftéé which is what you actually registered on our forum, so
when we searched to manually activate your account we got "No Users
Matched Your Query"

Your account is actually active, you have verified it, I think it is
just a simple case of you putting in kráftéé with your password and
hence getting the errors you are saying.

However if you put in the login box káftéé and your password, you
should be able to login.

We did not choose your username or password, you did, so in future you
should really get your facts right before putting down our log in
procedures. Like I said you are the only one to report this and it is
in no way our fault.
