Be aware that this is not very secure, and as a new security feature from OpenVix is that you now have to setup a password for your root account in order to access OpenWebIf from the outside.
You can do this by ssh'ing into the STB and change the blank password. You should be able to find info on this elsewhere if you are not sure about this.

Hi
I want to upgrade but have this problem with accessing openwebif from remote location. Can you explain exactly how to change the password.
Thanks
