Dreambox 500T 500C Fixes here

Westham...couldn't you make a backup of your image with all the goodies in it and upload it mate.

That way people can just use dreamup to flash it to theyre box.

I would do it myself but i am in scotland and have no way of testing it.

Although previously i did do the same for uk when we were stuck.

Only a suggestion mate.

 

@westman88. thnak mate all is well. initially when i launched the cam and went to sky sports it was the only channel that would work.

I restared the box and the cam and all was good.

Cheers mate appreciate it..

 

That would be the easy way out. Its good to learn how to do these things. If they follow the clear instructions above they should have no problem in getting the box back up and working

 

True mate.

I suppose 1 little image wont make much difference anyway.

Worth a shot.

 

im sure its not that hard to do but i dont have a router or cross cable and its not for me so im not going out of my way to buy cables and stuff for my mate he`ll just have to buy a kryptview or something . . thanks any how

 

`hi do i need a load like digivox or krypview

 

Im not to sure what you mean??

 

how do i flah the box with software

 

i know this site is all about info and learning to do stuff for urself and helping others and the people on it go out of their way to help us novices, but im on day 5 of trying to get my box working and after flashing my box about 70times with files that dont work or crupt files that i was told work,then have to go to google and load filezilla that i havnt a clue what to do with it, then look for 3 files that im ment to put into var then bin and in the middle of my box flashing the latest dk_11 thing it stopes and says error upload aborted?? anyway thanks for trying but i think i will look elsware for help

 

I'll do one with all the files it will be here tomorrow unfortunately i wont be able to test but it should be ok.

 

If you check one my last few posts it will show you the steps on how to get it back. You need a null modem cable to connect box to pc and using dreamup you flash the image onto the box

 

you need dreamup thats like your loader and then you need the latest image and then follow steps from westhams post above

 

May I be allowed to thank WESTHAM for a wonderful quick fix. I had learned how to FTP, Telnet, Flashwizard etc. some eighteen months ago but my computer has taken a hissy fit and will no longer allow me connect to the box via the crossover cable (a problem I sought help with on this thread some months ago, all to no avail).

As one who is works in education, I appreciate the encouragement to learn and understand the box architecture but it is surely evident that some members struggle with some of the more intricate facets of the box's functioning.

I can't see the harm in posting a readymade image. It doesn't prevent those who really want to learn from doing so. Yes, there may be lazy buggers who take advantage but why deprive those who are less technically competent?

No offence intended to anyone - just my opinion.

 

agreed ..cos i just hadn`t got a router or cross over cable otherwise i would of taken it on board myself

 

here is an back up img from dublin just load with dream up and thats it

this img is ready made just load and go i have tested it and is working grand

 

Some people arent going to be happy with this upload. I for one think its taking the easy way out.

 

As I said yesterday mate the ones that just want will take it, others who want to do it themselves will take the alternate route

 

Ye very true!! All the info is here to to it themselves so we will see what happens. Its not that hard.

 

You didn't think that yesterday when you uploaded one lol.

 

A moment of madness on my part. I now know!!
