You see in the log above every step via nullmodem cable log.
The bootp request from the box simply doesn't reach IFA via network.
Something is blocking the network.
I guess the winxp firewall is blocking.
Its also possible the network is misconfigured. The network part from the log was not posted.
i aint got win xp, i got vista runnin on it!

Hi All,
First of all it's great to see a wonderful site with such useful info.
I have a problem using IFA (1.56 and 2.31) I recently prchased a nokia dbox 2 with a blade trinity image which upon on startup will not respond to Remote. Therefore, the ftp method is out of the question. I have used the guide to flash with IFA and each time I reboot the DBOX the kernal starts and I do not get the flashing message on the lcd display. I am using a cross over cable but no null modem cable.
This is what I have done so far:
IP Address: 192.168.0.101
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.0.1
After lauching IFA and selcting the image (sportster 1.10) I press the OK button followed by the start button. I do notice that the pinging DboxII failed message appears in the bottom left corner in the boot assistent. I then plug the dbox and this loads the kernal instead of flashing.
Can anyone confirm I have done all this correctly or if I have missed anything? or if there is something that needs tweaking. I can honestly say I'm baffled to say the least. Please can someone come to my rescue.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Jen

Hi Haris,
I'm on xp but I don't have a null modem cable. If it helps I will get one but can I ask what the null modem cable provides over and above connecting via crossover cable?
Please can you tell me if I'm doing everything else right (as per my previous thread) I'm sure I am other than not using a null modem cable although in all the guides I have read it is deemed not essential.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Jen

heya there jen,
yep, you are right in saying that most ov the guides infact i think all ov them say that the null modem cable is not essential, however sometimes you need it, i don't exactly know how it helps but the only advantage that has been told is that you can see the progess ov the communication between your dbox and the pc!
In my case, i was having the same problem as you with the flashing but by getting a null modem, it worked like a charm for me, i don't know what guide you are exactly using but pm me and i will send the link that i used to fix it up and also the sportster 1.74 image that i have used for three boxes and it's been working fine for the last 6 months or so!
ny more questions, feel free to write...
regards
haris

The advantage of the null mowdem cable is
You can see the activity while it is going on
It also gives you a bootlog of the problems
Which can then be copied and pasted as a text doc
Up load it here and some of the the more advanced members (mgb)
will be able to tell you were the faults are .......paul

Hi Guys, I managed to flash the dbox through IFA with the sportster image. However, as with the blade trinity image which was installed when I bought it the nokia dbox2 does not respond to any of the remotes buttons (apart from the blinking green light each time the remote is pressed) it also does not respond to the stand by or up down buttons on the dbox itself. I don't know what to do now. Having managed to get IFA to work I am still in better position as before. Have I missed anything?
Regards,
Jen

Which remote do you got?
The small one with the premiere sign is programmable and maybe programmed for the wrong box.

I've actually managed to to succesfully flash a commando 8 image and got the remote working. However, after a bruteforce scan which found 308 transpoders no channels were found. My cams are set evocamd and ucode to 001A. I have another dbox which I flashed via ftp with the same image and it had found the channels. The only difference here is that I have flashed using IFA (as I had to due the remote not responding).
Does anyone have any ideas what's wrong or is it a case of flashing via ftp to get it to work.

Hi bigdunc,
I've tried these options. Apart from ftp image and flash.
I have set my location (no joy).
I have copied my services.xml and bouquets.xml from working box (I have these backed up on my pc) and transferred to non working box. When I do this the box freezes and does not respond to the remote. This is similar to the problem I have had initially where the dbox will respond to the dbox.
Is there anything else I can do? do you have any recent images that will definately work? I know the commando 8 image works as I have flashed my other box and another box (both via ftp)

Before you plug in press the up arrow button at the box and let it pressed.
If you see something at the display after plugin you can release the button.
After that you see the result of a memory test in the log output.

If you get the message from IFA to power on the box click ok and press the up arrow button at the box and plug in with pressed button.
After that check the log output.
