    if you are using a x-over cable no need for the router - just connect cable directly between dbox and your computer.

    Set your area. I did that and I got more channels, however they are all over the place and need the XML files to sort them but hey, atleast I have the channels back :)

    Hi I have a simular problem with "flashing" a dox2. On this or another forun I was given and sent by post the instuctions with a CD with all the files requires(2) using just a serial cable. Ater doing what was required L get as far selecting "kermit" and I am supposed to get the following on the DBOX2 "loading kernal" but all I get is U-Boot 1. 1. 2 and not "loading kernal" help? I have tried the files supplied which are u-boot.mot and image is laky-pro-1.img or mtd4.img ;when using the first one it will not transfer any information and when using the second I end up with the screen showing ("Boot") etc
    What am I doing wrong?

    hello mate, would you like to try the step by step guide in my signature? it will cost you nothing and it has the files you need..

    Do you have the correct NULL MODEM CABLE ?

    that is what you need... FEMALE TO FEMALE (9pin - 9pin)

    Hi thanks to every body who tried to give me help! after another look at the way it could be done I got my son who knows how computors work and he used "Laky-Pro-1" which at least gave me a image loaded ,but the DBOX then thought it was a satilite reciever but looking through all the forums I found the way to correct this select nutrenu and switch it on?

    Hi there all is not well; after setting the dbox to cable= alluk scanning;transponders 376 and finding the all; frequency set by box various; area various; channel ident correct as the box searches when finished I get TV=285;Radio = 40; DATA 34; with the total 285.While the "blue" information is on the screen and the channel picture in the back ground the picture/sound are correct the problem starts when I select the "home" button to get out of the menu, the picture then rund for about 5-10 seconds and then freezes.when I test the "network" I get dbox *** is reachable but the others are unreachable? since I get all the channels I just don't understand why?I am using "Laky-pro-1" from Bigmaq which seems to work?
