I deleted some file on my dream box by accident, using the telnet program. Since then the box shows nothing but a blue screen.

On some parts of the forum it says that the only way round this is by using a null modem cable (is that a R2323 cable - female to female). If so I bought one of them used the dreamup program but does not get by the "Switch on the dreambox"

Is there any other way of flashing to new software?

Thanks in advance

An RS232 cable is not a null modem cable.

Both have 9-pin female to 9-pin female connectors but the pinout is different inside the cable.

If you put 'null modem cable' into ebay you'll get one for £3.

I find it difficult to believe that deleting one file could cause that much damage, do you know which file it was?

Did you follow the guide here for using dreamu?

If there are no files on the dreambox than you will only be able to connect to flash the box. You cannot connect directly with an ethernet cable but you could with a crossover cable.
