    i would reflash the box with the RS232 cable with a older firmware and then update the box online to the latest firmware.

    older firmware do not work with 780 you would need the 11112012 firmware to flash by null modem cable,the reason why the s/w does not work any more maybe due to new address.

    That firmware you put on your box is not the correct firmware and was only for the A750 box, the last file for the A780 is the 11/11/12

    mmm now you did not wait for the flash to finish fully, reflash the box and wait for it to fully finish before you disconnecting the cables.

    The downtool is still picking up the 750 firmware thats why it still does not have the 780 file on the loader, i take it from the lack of further posts on this you have now sorted "your" mistake out.
