Make sure it's a Null modem cable and not a straight RS232 cable.

Also handy to have is an ethernet cable if using programs like Dreambox edit or Dreambox control centre.
If connecting directly to the box from your PC make sure it's a crossover cable. If your connecting your box to a router, a straight ethernet cable will do.

Hi all need a little bit of help..
First off i dont realy understand the way these boxes work unlike the Starview!!

Im in Dublin using N**hell


So from reading this forum about these boxes, i have downloaded Dreamup-V1.3.1.0 and Gemini_410_Dm500_2310200 image file. Now the problem i am having is, i have connected my Dreambox to my pc using a 9pin crossover null modem cable, opened the Dreamup programe, picked the com port, pressed connect and nothing it just says "connection prepared, now switch on Dreambox" wich i have done over and over again. So i have some questions

1. Are these boxes worth the hasstle?
2. Is the programe im using the right one?
3. Is the image file a good one to use?
4. When i done my first scan i got all the programes but when i change channels it's slow for the next channel to come through and when they come in after 3 mins the picture goes all blockey..

Finaly is it true that you can use these boxes with S*y or is it a fairytale..

Thank you in advance..

where can i get these files. Have a dreambox dm500 and when you do a scan it finds about 150 channels but most of them just come up with a black screen, a friend in work said its something to do with missing key files? does the above image work on NTL ireland? Image i have now is "Digitalworldz Dream version 2.0". cant even find an option in the dreambox where i can change what type of softcam to use

Hi,
Is there any chance anyone could send me a DW image (1.6.5 or 2.0)
I am trying to get one, but the registration at digitalworldz is a bit of a pain.

push blue when watching a channel and then restart evocamd
