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..

You have to use a real nullmodem cable with crossed wires.
A serial cable with 1:1 wired cables is not working.
