    are you using just a null modem cable or a null modem in conjunction with a usb to serial adapter?

    can you try it on a mates pc first,the reason i ask is its always easier to download new firmware with the stand alone null modem, most of the time you just connect to pc and box and it works straight away,a lot of people have problems with the usb adapter thats why its unusual for you to be having difficulties,so if you can save yourself a few bob try.Also i once had to hold the null modem on the box for the whole download as the serial port on the box was a bit dodgy,so if you want to try and give it another go today,also maybe someone will spot something i didn't,are you sure your box is not a clone?

    no your grand,no it dosn't because your using the serial port,and also in regards to your earlier question you do not need to turn off your firewall have a look in here http://www.freewebs.com/euroclone/
