replay lite com port problem

I have a replay lite box in ireland with nthell. I have the firmware stblink 5.2 and software 750 but when i try do load the software onto my replay lite box it cannot find the port. i have tried every com port on my computer. i am using a usb cable. could someone please help me with this problem.

Thanks

 

You need to load 9.10. Are you sure you have a Null Modem cable?

 

what is 9.10 and the cable i am using is the same one i used to load software onto a friends starview 3 box

 

Okay so the cable should be fine so. What software is on your replay lite at the moment?

If you look at the replay lite thread - unfortunately this has been closed due to the amount of posts over the last few days, you should be able to flash your box. http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/502990

Have you a basic replay lite or a replay pvr - is there a hard drive in your box?

 

i have a replay lite box i dont know what software is on it or whether it has a hard drive. how do i find this our. when i downloaded the software onto the starview 3 box i used com port 3 on my computer but no matter what com port i use the replay lite box will not connect

 

Here is a picture of the two different boxes. You should be loading 7.42 and then 9.10 for the replay lite and 913 for the replay pvr.

I don't know why your cable isn't working, is there a usb in the back of the replay lite, or are you attaching the usb to a female to female cable or what?

 

i am connecting a usb from my computer to a female to female. the box i have is neither of the ones in the picture. it is like the top picture but instead of 11 lines on the top my only has 9. thanks

 

So you are a replay lite. You need 7.42 and then 910. Follow the flashing instructions in the replay lite thread i linked you to above. I have to go now sorry, but will be around tomorrow evening, or someone else might be able to help you.

 

thanks ill try that
