Thanks very much. Great knowledge. Does it work for all DVR models?
Yes, it does.
Cannot get this to work as my problems exist within Chrome and I do not have a toolbar to access the way you have described the solution
The solution worked for me and works for other people as well.
Just make sure you have the Google Chrome with the default configuration or reinstall it if necessary.
There’s no extra information I can give you, just because it works as described in the blog post for everybody else.
