Hi all, Real newbie here so please be patient. Only bought the box yesterday. The problem I have is that I can't download the firmware onto box or upload saved chanels etc. I've tried it on 2 laptops and neither one recognises the box (or Com settings???). Tried using 9 pin to 9 pin modem cable and even gone to M*plins for USB serial converter for transfer and neither one has worked. I've read tutorials (thanks) and followed to the letter but still no joy. I've set it up on the tv, done a scan, so I know the box is working. I've downloaded wrar30 & UFL EX1000SL and they seem ok. Not sure where to go from here. After reading the forums I'm sure this will be the first of many posts. Please keep any replies reeeally simple. Thanks
Use the Laptop which has XP then you need to asign your Com/ports in Device Manager. For setting up your Null modem cable have a look at this, http://www.4shared.com/file/50328931/7301ddea/Null_Modem_ComPort_SetUp.html?dirPwdVerified=1a61e8c also for setting up the USB adaptor, http://www.4shared.com/file/50328985/9798c038/usb_device_set_upwmv.html?dirPwdVerified=1a61e8c
Thanks HiLink Tried to follow the links but they say "The file link that you requested is not valid". Just trying a search in google. Thnks again
Sorry HiTeck This 2 minute job has took the best part of 2 days now.... Been reading too many posts/tutorials etc. Think I'll leave it alone and settle for an expensive freeview box. All far too tricky.
Apologies for the links, entirly up to you but if change your mind come back and we will help you out, all the best.
