    hi all

    new to the forums, just had a sagem dbox 2 come this morning, it has neutrino on it, but it appears to be a very old version and doesnt pick up any channels, does anyone have a quick and easy setup guide to get me up and running with it? im on t*l*w*st and in the walsall area if thats any help

    any advise would be greatfully received as im a bit of a noob when it comes to setting these up

    cheers

    its a neutrino sportstar image, not sure of the version but when it powers on says 2005, so im guessing its way out of date

    cant pick up any channels on it either

    what transponders are you searching on? the options should be bruteforceUK, Sym6875 and Sym6(something else!)

    i dont get the option to change transponders, if i goto the service menu and do a sevice scan it only comes up with kabel deutchland

    have managed to optain a commando image v8.2 to reflash with, but cant find a cross cable, and can seem to change the network to dhcp on the dbox menu

    you need the uk cables.xml.

    Back up your original image first (incase u need something from it later) and FTP it off.

    Settings > Network - u should be able to change the DHCP settings there, thats if you're going thru a router

    ok heres what ive done so far

    updated to sportster image 1.10 uk 2x

    set area to walsall

    done channel scan on 6952, created new bouqeut

    i can get all fta channels but nothing else

    just trying your suggestion of sky sports, will leave it on for 5 mins and let you know how i get on

    Commando 8.2 doesn't have the keys installed - PM bigdunc for them, they go into the Var/keys folder (chmod'd to 755)

    Then, like the boss says, leave it on a sky sports channel while it decodes.


    you'll need to set your softcam (once the keys are on) to evocam - thats seems most stable

    Dunc - what u reckon, with your experience, is currently the best image?

    still no joy with the tardis image, and it was an older version than the sportster i already had on

    going to try commando 8.2 instead, can you email me the keys?
