need serious help with a segam dbox

Never heard of file manager 3.8 mate
All the gear you need is at the link i posted you yesterday....Paul

 

i followed the link and it took me to DRIVE HQ FILE MANAGER 3.8, so i just downloaded that

 

No you need ifa 156 and commando 6 x 1.........Paul

 

sorry bud i said i was a novice downloaded wrong stuff. but all sorted now found everthing, where do i go from here

 

Connect your crossover cable from your laptop to the D box
Run ifa
Select image commando 6
Selact network device you are flashing with
No null mowdem tick
Push ok
YOUR BOX MUST BE SWITCHED OFF AT THE WALL AT THIS POINT
wARNING YOU ARE ABOUT TO FLASH
Push ok and turn your box on at the wall
It should say flashing in the LCD
If it dont with in 10 secs
Switch D box off at the wall and back on untill itsays flashing
No need to touch pc
When it says flashing Done Close down ifa on pc unplug Network cable
And re boot yor box
Lets know how you get on .................paul
PS all firewalls must be off

 

whats IFA mate,

 

Ifa is the rared file name 156 sorry my fault .........Paul

 

i managed to sort it, ran the flash assitant but nothing has happened on the laptop screen or on the lcd panel on the box

 

When you say nothings happend
Is the box booting up
Are you sure that cable is a crossover cable
If it is stick withit and it will flash................Paul

 

the box has loaded up and just says skysports,

 

If it dident say flashing in the lcd
Its not reflashed
If it did say flashing
Leave it on ski sports 1 for 5 mins
You may have to reflash again but it will only work useing acrossover cable ....................Paul

 

still no joy bud, nothing is happing on the lcd screen and im using the right cable. on the boot manager says pinging dbox2 failed if that means anything 2 u

 

after leaving it for about an hour, i rescaned and it found 90 or so channels unlocked but no signal just says error.

 

sorry about this mate but making a total hash of this, i know why its not working im having trouble comunicating with the box, the cable is sending the signal but not receiving one back

 

Get your self a new crossover cable mate andwe will give it another go ..........Paul

 

just got a new 1 off a mate, some1 said that i have to set the ip's the same in network connections. does this mean i have 2 set up a new network connection

 

This is an active thread so i thought id post my question here.
I have lost my password for the parental lock!!!!!! So i wont be able to rearrange bouquets or service scan in the future.
First number was a 5/6, i think
Any suggestions? Thanks

 

Hi,

There are 2 methods to find the pincode on a dbox2

either ftp into var/tuxbox/config and view neutrino.conf, look for parentallock_pincode=####

the #### is the pincode.

If you want you can do it from the dbox
Choose Tuxbox Commander
var ok
tuxbox ok
config ok
scroll down to neutrino.conf ok
then scroll down to the line, it is in alphabetical order.
home
home


Good luck Paul

 

Thanks paul,
Ive got up to neutrino conf on the big blue list. Next to neutrino.conf it says 6.621 ( ithink)
Do i just press ok when on it?
I dont get what to do after that though. I didnt get what u meant by 'scrolling down to the line'
Thanks

BTW Im not sure whether i have a sagem dbox 1 or 2. I think its 1 as it doesnt say 2 anywhere on it. Will this make a difference?

 

hi bud, any ideas how to connect pc to dbox. ive tried 2 cross over wires they both connect to the box and send a signal but does'nt receive one back.
