No problem a Modem cable should have 2 x 9 pin females on ends, just make sure they don't sell you a serial cable which looks the same but wired different internally. The only reason you will need a null modem cable is if you want to load newer updated firmware into your box. jbvid
thanks for getting back to me i dont mean to sound stupid but what does jbvid mean and if you can tell me how to do it or were i will find a idiots guide to do all i need to do from downloading software to puting it into my starview thanks again
Hi Its all in the link below,(Software Files and How too) and read the info in the documentation folders to make sure which version of the Starview box you have first. http://eko.4shared.com/ If you don't find what you want there look in these other two links.

Ok I stand correcting, didn't know Starview did a DV3 version. I am sure someone else on the forum must have one to guide you along. jbvid
Hi Celt, thanks for that, hadn't heard or a DV3 ?? Starview. @tonydw Go back to the links I gave you and have a GOOD look and READ there, you won't find any more helpfull info than in there to sort you out. jbvid
