Wonder if he is trying to use a ftp service ?

Box ip
root
and your new password you saved on box.

Does box have all green ticks when you run Network test.

Passwords are case sensitive
mypassword is not the same as MyPassWorD

I am using extremity and trying to copy and paste my details but after putting password and saving it keeps saying access denied.

Does telnet work? Use the passwd command to change the password.

We may need more details to establish what you are trying to achieve
I can find no meaningful (in this context) link for any software called "extremity". What software is it and possiblbly provide a link to where it can be found.
Did it work before your upgrade to 5.4.xxxx?
Does your web interface to the box work? In your PCs browser address bar type the IP number of your box which can be found menu -> information -> network -> IP = xxx.xxx.xxx.xx

I think he means Xstreamity by KiddaC

I use Iptv and to put details on my box I use a program called xtreamity by Kiddac to copy and paste my details in, since updating to 5.4 I need a password for network so i made one up and saved it with green button rebooted box and it keeps saying access denied.

As per post #6, telnet into the box (putty) with the receiver ip address, login is root and if no password leave blank
then type passwd and enter (and I do mean passwd)
enter new password, and repeat

then everything should work.
