    what you need:

    1. ethernet cable

    2. flash fxp. click > ftp <

    3. nagrarom7 update > http://www.4shared.com/file/44158482/c6299f5e/nagrarom7.html

    follow carefully:

    1. plug an ethernet cable in to your computer and box.

    2. go to dbox then network on your box remote.

    3. go to flash fxp on your computer and pick file then quick connect.

    4. type your ip address from the box as server
    put user name as root
    password as dbox2 (if using commando password is commando)
    then press connect.

    note: if it doesnt connect change your box ip and dns and default gateway the same: 192.168.000.003
    and then pick start\restart network on the box.

    5. once connected go to var\keys and put the file in and overwrite.

    6. wait a few seconds and your box will come back on (if not after 2 minutes restart).

    7. the box will now stay on and if it ever goes off reboot and wait.
    you don't need anymore codes as the box will auto obtain them correctly.

    auto update MUST be enabled.

    if you need any more help just ask.

    HOPE THIS HELPS


    i have flashed four dbox2 boxes today so here is how to

    you will need

    laky-pro 1(from BIGMAQ tool-bar)

    Image flashing assistant (GOOGLE)

    null-modem cable

    patch/crossover-cable



    Now we need to setup the dbox to use ftp easily via your existing patch/crossover-cable.

    1.Get your dbox remote in your hand press dbox.
    2.Select the settings menu press ok.
    3.Select network then press ok.
    4.Change ip address to 192.168.0.100
    5.Change subnet mask to 255.255.255.0
    6.change default gateway to 192.168.254.2
    7.Save all setting press the home button.


    Now plug your patch/crossover-cable into the back off the dbox.
    Some off you might not have a rj45 lead spare, So use the one that the routers got
    plugged into.

    It the lead that plugs into your current computer network card to the broadband box.

    Now we need to setup your computer to talk to the dbox via ftp

    On your computer press the following (windows only)

    1.Press Start
    2.Press my network places
    3.Press view network connections
    4.Highlight local area connection.
    5.Right click select properties.
    6.Scroll down to tcp/ip
    7.press enter.
    8.Select the use the following ip.
    9.Enter ip address 192.168.0.105
    10.Enter subnet mask 255.255.255.0
    11. Enter default gateway 192.169.254.2

    Press ok shuts the window then press ok again shuts all network windows.


    using your Image flashing assistant flash you dbox2 with the NEW laky-pro image

    when finished flashing turn of the Image flashing assistant

    un-plug your box from the mains (then restart)

    select English

    press blue button

    select town (box will re-boot)

    scan for channels

    done!

    ps turn off your firewall

    good luck

    you need to pick start/restart network on your box network settings and make sure you are using an ethernet cable. what image are you using and what is the error?

    that happens if connection is idle for too long or if the ip address settings are wrong.

    change the boxs ip and pick start\restart network then try to connect.

    what error message do you get when you try to connect

    tyep this

    open up internet explorer and open up web address

    ftp://root:dbox2@<ip addressof dbox>

    this should open up the dbox directory listing

    this method confirms if you have network connectivity from your PC to the DBox

    Just a clarify question... does it need a crossover or straight cable, or it makes no difference?

    tripplite Guest

    good thing you asked;) you need a crossover cable:)
    the speeds are the same unless its a RJ-49, but thats another subject:)
    straight aka normal is fine for everything but pc 2 pc and dbox to pc and xbox 2 pc and such!


    will you say thank you varnull?.....l0l haven't scene those words slip from your mouth yet lol!
