    As Satlink said above you need to FTP to the box and change your keylist.

    Hi Folks,

    Just quick Thanks to Satlinksw for getting back with PM for me.
    I just have two other questions know which are probably the same as
    asking how long is a "piece of string". How often in general do the
    keys change? Is it about every 24 hours etc and how long normally or
    on average does it take to get an updated image to cope with these
    changes out into the public domain. I know there's no rules or
    guarantees etc but was just wondering on average?

    Also, would all boxes be affected by this autoroll change? It's just a guy I know tells me his box is not affected by the change, but not sure if this is the case, this has "thebox"

    Anyways again thank you and thank you for any information that you can
    give.

    Piece of string is as said the word, lots of key changes of late though. Some boxes were not affected "The Box" was one of those, other boxes have either been fixed or are in the process of firmware fixes.

    1. Plug a network cable from your dreambox in to A) your router or B) your laptop/pc.

    2. Setup your IP on the Dreambox so that it fits into your network, usually DHCP is enabled on your router. But for pc to Laptop set your IP's 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.3.

    3. Download A) Filezilla or B) Dreambox Control Center. Ftp into your Dreambox using: Username : root Password: dreambox connect to your dreambox 192.168.1.3

    4. Open the txt file in the var/keys/ folder, you will see when your in the ftp.

    5. Copy in the new keylist.txt , save and exit.

    6. Reboot your Dreambox and Whalla!!

    I know it working!!!!

    For all you 500C people this is to get your box back working

    Press the YELLOW button on the Dreambox remote.
    Select TuxBox Commander.
    Press OK on var, then press OK on keys
    Press 4 on keylist.txt

    Change whatever the hell is on 00 to
    N 5401 00 5B7436A3B230CB46 ;ROM11 AU Key Time Fri Apr 4 00:30:29 2008

    only 1 digit needs to be edited

    Reboot your Dreambox

    I may have got it wrong but your keylist.txt should be

    N 5401 01 540D8109F96E17F9 ;ROM7 AU Key Time Thu Apr 3 16:55:56 2008
