    hi ferg, in waterford, 458000,thats what i input, still no improvement with quality, sv box receiving all channels fine, i think its more to do with arnet rather than cable feed, what you think? thanks again.

    Did you check in the system information to see if the firmware is correct

    then select your provider and leave the channel search type alone set at network

    Also if you are manually inputting the freq you need to leave the network piece in place the only thing you need to change is the provider part try that

    STARTUP INSTALLATION
    PASSWORD ENTER 0000

    AUTOMATIC SEARCH
    THEN PRESS THE GREEN BUTTON AND IT SHOULD START SEARCHING FOR TRANSPONDERS ALSO IF IT STOPS ON A PROVIDER OR SOMETHING LIKE

    HAVING TO SELECT ONE OF THE PROVIDERS IN YELLOW AFTER YOU HAVE DONE THE GREEN BUTTON SELECT ONE OF THEM AND IF YOU GET NOTHING TRY IT AGAIN AND SELECT THE OTHER ONE THIS TIME

    ALSO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE CONNECTOR CONNECTED TO THE INPUT ON THE BOX AND YOU ALSO HAVE THE SCART LEAD ON THE TV ONE AS WELL DO NOT HAVE ANY OTHER CONNECTIONS CONNECTED TO THE BOX ON SCANNING LIKE THE PROVIDERS BOX YOU NEED THE CABLE GOING DIRECT TO THE BOX NOT VIA THE CABLE COMPANYS BOX THEN INTO THIS BOX

    hey all hopefully you can help me as i'm stuck, i just bought a kryptview box and it doesnt seem to work at scanning properly it crashes halfway through! so i am trying to update the firmware to see if its that, thats causing my problems, however.

    i connect the supplied cable to my pc, power the box up run the loader software selecting the latest firmware, press start, RED RED POWER (on the remote) and when the box comes back on i get the message "The Downloading is not requested" Whats going on?

    i have 2 com ports on my machine both are set to 15200, 8, 1, none and i get the same error if i try either on the loader software!

    Whats going on?

    you need rs232 cable you may just have corrupt software try download again from previous page if not work after that check com ports on pc are all working fine may be connection error,had similar problem before and was that,used a friends pc and it was fine,also check on previous page the loading technique and follow step by step,seems to be connection to me though,cable could be dud too are only cheap 1sstart affresh and restart pc before you try,good luck.

    thanks for all the suggestions, i have narrowed it down slightly, i have tried to arnets now and i still get the same also i have metered out the cable and its wire fine 1-1, 2-2, 3-3, etc plus i have tried two pcs and software downloaded from different locations, i can only assume it is the pcs though!

    is there any way to check the com ports? if i run mode from dosprompt i get the coms come up with the correct settings but is there anything else i can try?

    If your cable is wired 1-1,2-2,3-3 etc its the wrong cable,thats a normal serial cable you need a null modem cable DB9

    Ok here is the correct procedure for putting the firmware on to the Arnet and should only be done this way and no other no matter what you have read else where

    DO NOT HAVE YOUR BOX PLUGGED IN FOR THIS WHEN YOU ARE SETTING YOUR DOWNLOAD UP FIRST

    MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SET THE LOADER TO THE CORRECT COM PORT

    1 get your loader double click it another box will appear

    2 click on download another box will appear

    3 click on browse and find the firmware and tell it to open

    4 click on download then plug in the Arnet and wait for it to download

    5 you will see on the front of the box display it going aroung in a square

    6 then when it is finished you will see it going faster wait till the box reboots itself before you stop anything and then you can disconnect all the cables

    7 DO NOT PRESS RED RED AS THIS IS NOT TO BE USED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES AS ALL THIS DOES IS CONFUSE THE BOX

    8 then do a factory reset then go to auto put your provider in leave the network alone

    9 press the green button if you are on N** you will get only 2 options after it has gone thru the process you select legecy not upc ok then press ok and it will scan away for the freq you need to be patient as this will take a bit of time
