    do you have access to your DBox via a PC as the fix involves copy over 4 files to the DBox.

    connect to the dbox via a FTP program (cuteftp for example)

    go to /var/keys folder

    copy the files fro your PC to this folder using the FTP application

    reboot the dbox

    go to Sky Sports 1 and leave it their for 1 minute and the channel will clear and Sky Sports 1 will appear (on mine it took about 5 seconds)

    Hi guys
    My Nokia Dbox2 is down has been since last Tues. I am using the Don image, I went into the menus mucked about eg, forced it to look for updated keys. I got the programs back for a while, however they disappeared again after a couple of hrs.
    I wonder if zappp64 could inform me where to get the 4 files that will have to be transfered from PC to the Dbox.
    I have been reading online that you need to use a ftp, I have flash fxp this is supposed to be good. I really dont know, have never tried this before. I also understand that you need a crossover cable and a Nul modem cable, dont know if I have to use them both together or singly?.
    I am going to try ebay for the cables.
    I would be grateful to know where to get the 4 files, then once I get the cables I would let you know how I got on.

    Cheers Billy.
