I dont have an order number as all those in the USA would. I bought a CM15 from Win Plus here in Aus, the CD cover says to go to www.bmb-home.com for "free upgrades" but that site has no latest version of AHpro.
Ive downloaded and installed 3.296 and now want to register it, how would i do this?

You may not be able to. The one you downloaded was for US and Canadian machines where a registration is needed.
The free one you originally downloaded was for your Australian purchase.
I believe they are two completely different entities.

The software revision history page.
http://www.x10.com/support/rev_ahp.htm
Shows 3.292 as the first version with full support of the newer plug ins.

Have you purchased the plug ins and are trying to make them work?

What's the voltage in Australia?  That may be why US/Canada X10 items won't work properly.

No I bought this in Aus, it works on 240v.
Its the software Im concerned with. I got a pretty old version of AHpro on a cd. Ive installed the latest download and am wondering how to register it.

Since you got your first AHPro from a Australian source, but downloaded 3.296 from X10 in America.   Since your first AHPro didn't need a registration code you don't have one.   The ONLY way to get a registration code for 3.296 is to BUY it from X10USA.  Cost to do that is $49.00 US plus you get A CM15A you can't use (it's built for 110 volts). 

I'd check where you first got AHPro and see if they have an upgrade.

Aha ok Im actually right now trying to find where to buy it heh.
I found the deal where you get AHpro and a wireless dongle etc but Im pretty sure they wont allow me to buy that because they dont ship it to Aus.
Where is AHpro available as a standalone purchase?

Did you say you were able to turn modules on/off through this latest version? If so, then you could take your chances and order it.
Try the chat to see if you can order it on it's own.

Well that is another story, I was going to start a new thread when I get AHpro sorted out.
I couldnt get it to work, then I plugged in a wireless receiver and Im able to switch that, none of the other non wireless modules work though..
I was using the CM12AU before the new CM15 I just got. That worked fine, except I kept losing the com port... so I heard the only fix was to buy a cm15 with its USB interface.

Theres a deal here
http://www.x10.com/promotions/sw31a_ed_tenbucks_special_v2.html

Im not sure if Im able to buy from overseas though? perhaps I can get it sent to one of the forum guys and I just get the registration of the software...

   The ONLY way to get a registration code for 3.296 is to BUY it from X10USA.  Cost to do that is $49.00 US plus you get A CM15A you can't use (it's built for 110 volts).

Oh that is the kit with the TM751; CM19A and the software.
TM751 and CM19A would not be used as the TM751 is 120 volts and the CM19A uses 310MHz RF and Australia is 433.92 MHz, but for $9.99.

Yeah, if I could order it and send it to any of you guys I would be quite happy to, and get myself a legit version of AHpro.
US and Canada are the only options in the order process.

I just asked x10 via the homepage chat and they WILL sell software to overseas customers, just not hardware.
If you only require software this may work for you.
