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?

You dont need to know any ips at all to flash with ifa
Just cross over cable like i said run ifa
And switch on and off at the wall thats it
Never had a problem


If you want to FTP you need the ips
Programs here if you want it..........Paul
