    Default Updating channels on DM500-S

    I've searched the forum but can't find a thread that explains step by step how to update the channels on a DM500-S. It has no USB so I'm guessing I have to do it over the Network or get a RS232 > USB cable

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated

    Thanks

    Managed to download DreamBox Edit and connect to by box. However when I try and FTP the Bouqets it says the username or password is wrong. The username is set to root and the password is dreambox.

    I need to reset the root password so I downloaded Tuxbox Commander and installed using the below guide:

    Open tuxbox Commander and enter the directory / var / etc / and then get the passwd file, and press the button 4 (Edit) on the remote control.
    Firstly, enter the following: root:: 0:0 ::/:/ bin / sh
    also create the file passwd in ~
    This is done by selecting the first row with the arrow keys on your remote and press OK. Deleting is done with the VOLUME -,
    and writing as well as writing a text message on your mobile phone.
    Thus the Dreambox passworada without a new creation can be done with the help of Telnet. Poktene the Telnet log
    with a blank password and then house the command passwd
    It is also possible to enter a new password with the help of the DreamBox. This can be done in the Extra / Setings / Password.
    Enter a new password and that's it. Now Dreambox a new password by this time one should remember that nebismo had repeated the entire procedure


    My question is how do I do the very first step: open tuxbox commander and enter the directoy....

    Where do I open it from? Do I telnet onto my Dreambox or do I open it from within one of the Dreambox menus?

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated

    I gave up trying to reset the root password and instead flashed with a new image. I then setup using 28.2 as the satellite and it found hundreds of stations. I could then login as root using dreambox as the password put the Bouquets on using the above guide

    Thanks for all your help, this forum is awesome!
