Sasktel Max (Sasktel's Digital Cable) Author: Adio Date: Feb 28th 2007 Recently I bought a new house which left me without Internet for about 3 weeks. Sasktel takes forever when you need your internet hooked up! Anyways... the day I moved in I started a scan for some Wifi access points. Luckily my neighbor had a open Wifi access point so I jumped all over that. A couple days went by and I was thinking maybe this guy next door had Sasktel Max too, and I wondered if I could leech that too. So I had a problem since Sasktel sends all there si- gnal over IP I had to get the IP's and Ports for nearly 200 channels. How to do this you may ask? Using my Cisco Catalyst Switch and a friend's existing Sasktel Max Subscription. I travelled to his house the next day plugged in my Cisco Swi- tch and started surfing through his channels. After surfing through about 10 channels i checked the logs on my Cisco Switch and there were some IP addresses I've never seen before with some Ports ranging from 9400 - 9447. So we have some IP's and some ports now how do we use them. Using the free VLC Media Player and its option to open a network stream using a UDP Multicast Signal. After putting in my IP and port that was found by my Cisco Switch I was amazed to see the pi- cture of the A&E channel load right up! So there we have it a simple way to leech free cable from those bastards at Sasktel. The only downfall is your neig- hbors or whoevers Max your leeching, there signal will be scrambled. There would be away around this if say you and your neighbor had an agreement. They could simply rent 2 boxes so Sasktel would send to different signals to there house. After a week you could bring the 2nd rented box back to Sasktel and say you only need the 1 box and 2 signals will still be sent to your neighbors house! This only works if your local Sasktel is lazy like mine, and they don't go about re- programming your line for 1 signal :) Another thing to note is even if your neighbor is not subscribed to all the channels on this list you can still access them. When Sasktel comes to your house they program your box to what you have chosen for packages, but they still send all the signals to your box, but your box blocks the ones your not subscribed to. Using your computer you have access to every channel for free. If my neighbor was smart he would just use his computer and access all the channels for free like me :) Here is my Channel list: HOME PAGE 239.255.255.7 9477 # Homepage and Guide are not accessible since they GUIDE 239.255.255.7 9477 are simply an image loaded off the Sasktel Max Box.
