Right guys, very new to this and don't even know how to use forums! Lovely, eh? I need help....proper help.....not medical!
I have N*L Dublin and a Dreambox 500c. It has the Digital Worldz 2.0 image (if that's what its called)..
What do I do to get it working? Its just new. Please be patient if you can help. Not at all technical!

Use the null modem cable. No dreambox ip is neccessary. Use the null modem cable from A PC , not from a usb/laptop to serial.

When you go to Maplins, get yourself a USB Serial Converter (30+EUR). It will allow you to connect your null-modem cable to your Dreambox via a standard USB connection. Download "DreamUP", download whatever image you desire, and then use DreamUP to flash it to your box. Dreamup will automatically invade and set your IP.

i got a dreambox 500c from my mate to fix and have loaded several of the dw images with null cable but cannot get it to autoroll. i followed cgscott's tutorial and used his working image. i scanned with brute and picked up 121 tv channels which is nearly all of them in dublin on ntl but can only view the fta channels. i have also tried rebooting and restarting evocam 212 but no joy, do i have to ftp the updated roms as well? appreciate any help, thanks

Switch to a working channel, go to manual scan, enable network search ONIT BAT, start the scan.

Try scanning your local area NTL cable ie instead of using "Bruteforce"
