How To Configure STB Emu App

7. Exit back one page, back to the profile settings from step 5, here select “STB configuration” option.
8. Inside STB configuration you’ll see MAC Address beginning with 00:1A:79. This is the address you’ll need give your provider. It’s important you have the correct MAC address activated entered here as this is what enables STB emulator access to the server.
In the case a MAC address was generated for you edit the default MAC to match one created.
