File Transfer Protocol. It's used to connect to servers for file transfer and is used via lan also to connect to devices such as xbox, dreambox, dbox etc.

I use flashfxp but there's others out there and if you're flashing it and have no idea what to do start with dreamup.

i have dreamup and i flashed with DK 1.1 what do i do next

 

Install flashfxp : http://www.afterdawn.com/software/network_software/ftp_software/flashfxp.cfm

Press menu on the dreambox go to setup and select expert setup, communication then find what the ip is (if dchp is on it must be plugged into a computer before you enter the menu to calculate it otherwise make your own by turning it off)

Open flashfxp and click the lightning icon in the top corner (quick connect):

Server or url = (ip of dreambox)

Username = root

Password = dreambox

Drag the 3 hypercam files into var/bin

Right click on each file and pick attributes and type 755 into the boxes.

Go back to black screen on dreambox and press blue and select tuxbox commander

Go to var/bin and execute the hypercam_1.06 file

Exit and save then wait on a blank channel for 2 minutes then change the channel, if it isn't working just keep leaving it on a blank channel for 2 minutes and changing it until it works.

If you unplug the box you will have to repeat the last 2 steps to get your channels again.

 

ive downloaded flashfxp clicked the lightening for quick connect typed in the ip address of the dreambox and the other info u gave me but its saying connection failed

 

what OS are you using?

 

what do u mean os sorry for sounding thick im not very familiar with this sort of thing

 

Operating System, Windows Vista, Windows Xp etc.

 

vista

 

Connect the dreambox via lan cable then if it doesn't work turn dchp off on the dreambox in the connections and put your dreambox ip as 192.168.0.3 then save and restart connection on dreambox.

Try connecting with 192.168.0.3

 

it says connected then goes to connection failed the port on my drembox is 80 thats what im putting in when trying to connect is there anything i have to do with the dreambox to connect it

 

Try 192.168.0.3 on the dreambox with dchp off then save and restart the dreambox. Then connect (I usually have the port on 21 and it works even though the box says 80)

If it fails again turn dchp on in the dreambox settings then save and restart the dreambox and go in to check the ip of the box again (it should have an automatically assigned ip address that will work.

Your internet connection might be interfering with it also so try temporarily disabling the internet if it keeps failing no matter what then enable it and post back.

 

its still saying failed do i have to do anything with the mounts the ip address stayed on 196.168.0.3

 

Hello lads.. has anyone been able to get this fix working with the DW image?
I currently have this one and kinda like it..
can't use dreamup from the laptop(no com ports) but I cna connect to the dreambox via ftp.. so how do I flash it via ftp?

 

if it stayed the same windows probably isn't picking it up properly make sure it's in your network list.

 

does the cable have to be a cross over cable ive tryed dreambox control center and its saying tha socket is not connected its not in my network
list

 

If you have network enabled on the dreambox and still nothing then it needs a crossover
