    you need a null modem cable to connect from laptop to pc.
    i picked one of these up from satworld in kimmage(they're online also) for 7 euro's.
    does anyone know can the nagrem files be flashed up to the dreambox or can they only be ftp'd up?
    I don't yet have the ability to ftp.
    If people have the same problem as me download the toolbar onto ye're pc and the updated codes will be shown there.

    Hi Jokerjay.
    The process i used to flash the box was exactly as you mentioned on page 14.
    What i did was:-
    Connected the box to the computer using null modem and flashed as you said in you instructions.
    Unplugged the box and connected it to the router using eathernet and ftp the new nag7 file and the keylist to the var/keys folder. i can only find the box through null modem using dreamup thats why i connected through eathernet.
    unlugged everything and connected at home to router, scart and power.
    Followed instructions, transponder search - Nothing gets found.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi guys. D/lded new nagraroms - 7, 10 & 11, and ftp'd into my 500C. I then plugged box back to tv and using Tuxbox I deleted old keys in the keylist.txt file. I then restarted evocam and voila everything back. So far so good - it seems to be updating itself. So thanks a million for all the advice given here. And if someone can tell me how to backup the image I will gladly upload it for everyone. Cheers.

    When you say you "deleted old keys in the keylist.txt file" do you mean deleting ALL the keys or did you just delete those that didnt have todays date??

    just delete the keylist.txt file only.and restart your cam.it will then make a keylist Automaticaly .

    channels will then come back

    Yep. As regionfre says, I deleted ALL the keys in the keylist file and then restarted evocam. So the was NO keys at all in the keylist file. I saved it with no keys. It generated the new keys itself. All good so far.

    Thanks for the clarifiaction, will try that.

    I have DM500T (C***** MMDS) working off Gemini 3.6 with evocam 2.12. Copied in the new Rom 7,10,11 bin files before the channels went last night but still lost channels. Hadnt deleted the keys before reloading so maybe thats the issue.

    Does anyone have a similar set up as me and got the new roms to autoupdate, just wondering if they are valid for the image I'm using?

    Thanks regionfre thats good to hear as there are so many variations of set-ups its hard to figure whats relevant.

    I actually put the roms files into var/keys folder but I think that updates the var/scce folder at the same time, so probably its the same thing. Will give it a go, thanks again.
