Cinty, your box seems to be working as it is scanning and finding channels. It has got to be something that you are missing whilst flashing it. I`ve been here myself. All I can suggest is trying again following the tutorial carefully or maybe flash with a null modem using DreamUp. That`s the way the makers recommend. Good luck.

Dazzap, Don`t flash erase, it doesn`t work this way.

Cinty you can`t flash via null modem using Dream Wizard it has to be Dream Up.

Cinty and Dazzup
The program automatically flash erases your current image because the box does not have enough internal ram for 2 images.

Thanks to Chris for the info.



I will try my best to help fellow members.

I have put 3 different images on it using dream up with a null modem cable and without a crossover cable if that makes a diffrence. Everything goes fine and the image loads on. However when I unplug the box and plug it in again nothing happnes. The light doesn't even come on in the front. ( it come on when the box is connected to dreamup).
Can anyone help???

Thanks..

Your powerpack may be bust.

What images have you flashed to the box?

Make sure they are compatible with the dm500c

Is the box a genuine box?

More info please?

NEED- ADVICE
I am buying a flashed Dreambox 500T from www.dreamboxireland.com. The guy says he will flash the box with dw2.0 image. I am going using it with Ch* MMDS.

1. Can any one recommend these guys?
2. Will this flashing be enough to get me started(ie will I also have to enter enter in keys before I get started?
3. Will I have to be suscribed to CH* for this to work? If so do I place the CH* card in the Dbox instead?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks guys

Hi -- Still need advice

Can some one tell me if the Dreambox 500t will work with the dw2.0 firmare?

I have read this forum and all the upgrade seem to have to do with the 500c(cable version)! Would some one be kind enough to tell me if I am getting the correct firmware?

Hi Lads,

I'm trying to de c ode cable TV chor-s/nt-l in Limerick using dm600c,
but I have no luck so far. Orginal image found some channels, but not all of them. I flashed the box with gemini 4.4 image, and now I can see full list of TV and radio channels. So there is a good staring point. I downloaded emus using blue panel and put kejz in the right directories, but they do not work. When I telnet to the box and run ie. mg c amd I can see 'bad or missing kej' errors so I assume that I don't have right kejz, but I've got no idea where to find them. I tried many, from differet sources but still no luck. How often they change the kejz? How the autoupdate works in the box? Do I have to connect the box to the internet or I just need right emus with right kejz ?

Thanks,

Wlodek

Hi guys, a newbie to the boards here. I have a Dreambox 500T with Chorus MMDS. I cant get Setanta Sports 1. I was wondering if any of you know which frequency that it is broadast on in Ireland so I can manually input it into the box.
Appreciate any info available. Some alos suggested that I move my dish slightly as this might help it to pick it up. Would this work?

Cable is not available in outside the main cities in Ireland.

What image will work with CHORUS MMDS in Ireland?
Maybe cadey110 will know--- What Image are you using? Is every other channel working except for Setanta?

My mistake this image will work with chorus in the menu to scan for channels it has the area you are looking for. Make sure you scan with that only.
