    kryptview is working fine the only problem is the remote, very slow to work, I bought a second one and that is a little better but nowhere as good as it should be

    Would the Dreambox not be a better option to buy for Ireland, as these are working fine and are easy to work on and update if further problems arise. just my personell view ,but may be worth looking into before spending the yo yo's....

    The dreambox isnt as well supported as kyptview and starveiw4. It took a hacker to fix the box and when N3 rolls out it will be back to square one

    Not a lot of people are up on using Linux, the arnet and similar are a bit easier to use for the novice, but its up to the person and how good they are with a PC and flashing etc

    Sticky Bump!

    If we could make this a sticky and clear out all the chatter such as this post it would be great. Usually threads get so long that people can't be bothered to read through them all the way for the little nuggets that's in there.

    go to the link in my sig and get dreamup from the dreambox folder, get the dk1.1 image, and download it to the box using dreamup (if you have a null modem cable).

    If not you'll need to do it via ftp (file transfer protocol) using a lan crossover cable.

    winrar will unzip both files you should then have dreamup.exe and dw11.img

    open dreamup.exe and select dw11.img (dreamup is the loader) this should start loading (might take 5 minutes to send a 4mb file through a null modem cable) Then it's flashed.
