What the…?

Hello,

I configured my device to use the provided DNS. I got the activation key and the frame ID. I reset my DNS setting back to their original value. Will I be able to connect to framealbum now? Also, how do I configure channels on the framealbum.com site?

Thank you!

@Till: FrameChannel compatible feeds do not include any real security; if someone knows the MAC address of your frame and it’s associated ‘ProductId’ they can view your feed. ProductIds designate the Manufacturer & Model of your frame; chances are if someone knows the MAC address of your frame then they also know the make and model number. This is an example of ‘security by obscurity’.

However, the Custom RSS feeds provided by FrameAlbum (and were also supplied by FrameChannel) do include a randomly assigned PIN in addition to the frame’s MAC address. This is a very week form of security that will at least slow down the bad guys.

I also just released your beta invite — you should see an email shortly.

@Steve: To which email address did you send something? I can’t find anything from your account.
