hello every one, I was trying to connect my Dbox2 to the pc to downlaod 7.bin on it, I have make step by step all what was written, my Dbox is connect with the cable, I plug the rj45 rooter, but when I look on my pc connection, there seems to be no connection, I'm sure that all the firewell are off, even the antivirus was off, but no connection. I was even enable to click on repair the connection as it was grey. I can't understand, do you think it's a technical problem on my Dbox, because, as I said, even when I try to make a scan, my Dbox doesn't detect any transponder. any advice, I would like to look inside it, but not easy to open it, as I don't have the scraw driver for it. I was doin all this: First things first, Setting up the PC so that its ready to communicate with the Dbox 1. Open the Control Panel then go into Network Connections 2. You may have a few different connections so disable all of them with the exception of the connection that you are going to use to communicate with the dbox. 3. Right click on the connection to be used and select "Properties" 4. If using Windows XP turn off the firewall by clicking on the "Advanced" tab, click "Settings" under "windows firewall" then select "Off" then click "Ok" then click on the "general" tab 4b. If you are using another firewall then be sure to disable it or you won't be able to connect to the Dbox. If you don't know how then stop here. 5. Double click on "internet protocol" to take you into the IP settings 6. Click "Use the following IP addess" 7. Type in 192.168.0.101 into the "IP address box 8. Type in 255.255.255.0 into the "Subnet mask" box if it is not automatically put in 9. Type in 192.168.0.1 into the "Default gateway" box 10. Click "OK" then "OK" again to save the settings Thats the computer ready now its time to setup the DBox 1. If not already turned on, turn on the Dbox. If there is no image on the box or if "Kein System" is showing on the display then move onto the IFA tutorial. 2. Once booted up press the "Dbox" button on the remote which on mine is 2 below the power button 3. Select "Settings" from the menu that pops up on the screen (should be 4 from the bottom) 4. Select "Network" from the new menu (should be 6 from the top) 5. Select "IP Address" (should be 7 from top) and change it to 192.168.0.100 then press "OK" on the remote 6. Select "Default Gateway" (3 below IP Address) and change it to 192.168.0.1 then press "OK on the remote 7. The "Subnet Mask" (Below "IP Address") should be 255.255.255.0, if it is not change it accordingly 8. Select "Start/Restart Network Now" (5th from top) 9. Select "Show Active Network Settings" (4th from top) 10. Go "Back" then click "Save Settings" to save everything. Now that everything is set up its time to communicate with your dbox 1. Connect your Dbox to your PC via the crossover cable. 2. Open your "Network Connections" from the "Control Panel" of your PC 3. Right click on the connection you are using to communicate with your DBox and select Repair (this simply refreshes the connection) 4. Open up Internet Explorer or Flash FXP or whatever program you are using to connect to the DBox 5a. If using Internet explorer simply type FTP://192.168.0.100 into it. If asked, the username is "root" and the password is meant to be "Dbox2" but it can be absolutely anything. 5b. If using Flash FXP click on the lightning flash then quick connect then type 192.168.0.100 into the "Server or URL" box type in "root" as the username and "dbox2" as the password then click "Connect" so even when I try to connect to the flash FXP there is no connection. help please.
If connecting via a router you use a straight through Cat5E cable or if direct to box use a crossover cable. Better of posting here http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/161/369401 as that is the Dbox thread the lads will sort you out there.
sorry for my question, I'm using the same router that I use to connect my pc to the internet box, so because I don't have an other one, so I took off the rooter from my internet box and I plug it on the Dbox2. and in the same time, I took off the cable that was plug on the internet box and plug it again on the Dbox? so I don't know if it's right, and an other problem, I'm a french girl, and don't speak well English, so can you tell me the diffrence between the 2 rooter you are speeking about?
