    Hi guys,I am very new to all this, I got a new nokia dbox2 from Germany 2 weeks ago, I thought it was plug and play but when I scanned it I only got the basic 14 channels, all were locked. I have just got a crossover cable.Does anyone have a basic guide in plain english explaining connections, scanning, service files, flashing etc. I am in north Dublin and I have NTL.
