    hi all
    how do I change the symb/ frequency on a Dbox 2. the option seems to be there but i cant access the manual scan?
    I can use cable bruteforce and find 282 transponders but no channels.
    help!!

    What image are you using. The freq is changed via set my location, usually under the blue button. It could be that you are using an older image with that feature not installed. Check my link for the latest image.

    i am using sportster1.07? image. the only cable providers are German or Austrian. should the brutefore scan find all of the channels or do i need an English image?

    No good like that mate
    Crossover cable
    And set your ip one below your d box on your network
    eg=192.168.4 240
    192.168.4.139
    Try it like that and get back to us .....................Paul

    hi mate,
    managed to flash commando 8.2 to the box. (i had to use a null modem cable as well as a patch lead in the end)
    ran a scan and found about 250 channels but most were locked. then i flashed donv4 but that found no channels. sportster 1.4 finds none as well. any other images to try?
    p.s i was messing aroung with the cam settings and ucode. could i have messed something up there.
    any help greatly appreciated
