I have the Harmony Pro 2007, media centre add on running on my Linksys extender. Unfortunately, as the harmony software does not feature a on screen keyboard and my Linksys DMA2100 is only controlld by a remote, there is no way to wite an '.' (fullstop) when it coms to entering the Harmony and CCTV server IP addresses.
I have tried to join the Harmony forum three times on three different emails to ask for their help, but they never authorise my memebership, so I'm not sure where to turn for help on solving this. Obviously, if I cannot, then all the hardware and software have been a waste of money.
