Remember there may well me import duty though on products that come from outside the eu. Best check first you don't want ant nasty suprises when you get your box.

If your supplier sent you a box with an image already on it it will work but if not or you dont like that image you could flash bootloader 72 r1 from here
to do this have you network cable attached & hold in the standby button on the box whilst powering on the box & keep the standby button pressed until the lcd shows you the ip address of the box, then in IE type that ip address into the url search bar, this will bring up the internal gui from the box, look at the bottom where it says flash update, click there & upload the new bootloader, you can then go here again & use the image of you want, I'm using PLi jade 3, very stable but you might need to restart the box more than once at first until it boots correctly.

Which dreambox fo you have? I don't know too much about Pli, I have been reading mostly about Nabilo and Gemini. Very easy to flash images actually just need to find the right one! I wanted to get this sorted tho as i've already paid for a 12 month subscription

Just flashed a patched Gemini image v 4.4 #69.

Remote works great again but still getting tuner failed. Think the only thing left is update the drivers etc. I just downloaded a pdf of how to do this. Fingers crossed...

I have a Dreambox 800HD - I've put a Pli image on it and CCam 2.1.1.

It powers up fine and I can use the remote to navigate through the menu's.

It seems to be set to DHCP - when I power it on and hold the power button it, an IP addy of 192.168.1.8 appears.

If I do a ping -t to this address, it pings continually and it is visible in the list of clients from the router.

Dcc v2.95 can find it in the search at this point.

I cannot connect via Dcc v2.95 no matter what option I try - I've tried router, with check etc but it continually returns the error:

'Dreambox login failed'

user: root
password: dreambox

If I powercycle the box, I can't ping, see it in the router, or connect.

Can anyone suggest how to proceed - be it a different image or whatever..

Thanks.

I managed to connect in using DCC - from the remote, I went to Menu/Setup/system/Network and edited the existing IP to a .24 address on my subnet.

It has a bootloader of 72 and it's PLi Jade

I'll download that file and put that on - is it safe putting that on a clone?

The box seems to jam up frequently if I scroll quickly through the menus and I have to wait a minute or two or power cycle - has anyone encountered this?

Thanks for the help

I need to clarify a few things, when you say DCC you mean dreambox control center ? thats not a lot of use to you realy,.. the rapidshare link I posted has a patched nabilosat image for the clone 800hd with bootloader 72 so it's ok to use. see here for more images,..did you follow the instructions in the pdf file link I posted ?

The method of flashing covered in the pdf file is much easier,..the 800 has a built in web interface & you just type the ip of the dreambox into the your web browser & up pops the interface on your PC screen,..then click "firmware upgrade" locate the image you want to flash on your PC & away you go,...dead simple & no need for dreamup or other software,..the remote issue can be improved by upgrading your bootloader to 72 r1 here ,..you can also use the web interface to flash the bootloader.
