    untrue, these boxes only listen on the network, they dont speak back. only way they can tell is by coming into your home and seeing it.

    maxv firmware here: http://www.box.net/shared/static/m5eo2cbkkg.rar

    red box firmware here: http://www.box.net/shared/static/55kf33e4kg.zip

    blue box firmware is here: http://www.box.net/shared/static/ya3l6ngcgs.rar password is: techwatch

    You will need:
    A null modem cable (serial cable) – if you don’t have one – get one. You cant update without it.
    Winrar – download here: http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm click on WinRAR 3.71 at the top

    Connect your eurovox to you pc with the serial cable, put the box in stanby.
    Unpack the file i posted earlier with winrar. Inside the file will be the loader utility and a notepad doc.
    Open the loader utility.
    You may first want to backup your chanel data so you wont have to rescan for chanels.
    To do this, click on the browse tab, choose a location to save your chanel data and click UPLOAD.
    Now to update your firmware, click on the download tab (note there are two download tabs, to update firmware click the highest download tab, the one on its own)
    Click start when the new box appears.
    Wait for update to complete.
    Now you can put your chanel data back on, to do this hit the browse button, select your chanel data file and press the download tab that is next to the upload tab.
    When completed hook the box back up, go to an encrypted chanel and allow about 15 mins for codes to update.

    have you installed winrar? if not do it now.

    After that, double click the firmware file and winrar will open.
    click extract to, a new box will appear choose a destination folder (desktop is the most simple) and click ok. the file will now be extracted the the desktop (or wherever you choose to save it)

    ok, a few questions. what box do you have? do you have a program called winrar installed on your pc? do you have a pc with a serial port? do you have a null modem cable (serial cable)?

    yes you would, please guys, ive been repeating myself all day. i have seen nothing but problems with usb adaptors, some work, some dont. if it dont work there is really not a lot that can be done about it, sorry. you need a machine with a serial port.
