    i was having the same problem, one of the lads helped me out, sent me an image file, which i put on the box and updated, it was already setup for dublin, all the channels came in after a few minutes. im south side too so dont be worrying you will get it going with a bit of help.

    You just have the basic cable yeh?

    Nokia DVB 2000 aka Dbox1. This is different from a Dbox2. You need a hardware cam and a funcard. The keys need updating manually and it's often more hassle than it's worth. Mgb17 is more knowledgeable in this area. My advice would be to whack it on ebay and get a Dbox2.. :(

    Its depends on the knowledge and skill if its worth to get a dbox1 going.
    If you know how to programm a funcard and you got a dbox1 with amon cam its pretty easy.
    A dbox1 is a nice second or third box if you get one cheap enough with amon cam.

    You need a funcard, a programming device for the funcard, a amon cam fitted to the dbox1 and a source for new keys.
    If you have to buy new equipment its maybe not worth the hassle.

    Just wondering if anyone else here splits the connection with their DBOX and keeps the NTL box also running? I heard that there is a certain amount of talkback on the NTL boxes and if it's left unplugged and unused for months while your still paying for the cable it may look a bit suspicious on NTLs side? If they even bother check that stuff though...

    What do you think?

    lol - the good news was, I had one for sale! If it says loading kernel when booting, it's a bad flash. Try re-flashing using IFA. If you get the same result, a trick I've heard of is to purposely flash a 1x image to your 2x box. The result will be Kein System, but when you once again flash the 2x image it should boot normally..

    All I know about the Replay Lite is that it's buggy. And old. Admittedly, I've not had first hand experience of one though..

    Does any one have a services list for Cork MMDS, that shows all the channels that they are transmitting.

    Chorus mmds is only functional with a dream 500t box or a Dream 7025 with DVB-T Tuner.
