trouble using the new image

[moxer]

hi,

I'm having trouble trying to upload the new image to get the dreambox 500c working on n.- l. I've downloaded the new file v1.1, filezilla and have saved everything on to my desktop. When i try to connect the box to the laptop - i keep getting "error connection" message. Is there a specific server and password that needs to be entered on the server connection? I would greatly appreciate any help you can give me. Am a complete newbie.

Thanks a million

moxer can you supply a bit more information.



are you following one of the guides from the download section?

Do you have the correct cable to connect to your box?

[moxer]

im using the dreambox ireland n2 fix.i have an ethernet cable connected from my laptop to the dm500c.sorry but not really up to date on any of this.

[challah]

what software program are you using to connect to the box

[moxer]

trying to use filezilla?

[challah]

never used filezilla myself but as far as i know it's an ftp program
used for transfering files not images
to load an image with what you have you need flashwizard
also what part of ireland are you from

[moxer]

perfect thanks will try that now. In the Dublin area

[challah]

I used FlashWizard to flash my D500c and it worked first time so fingers crossed for you pal....

hi guys, u can only use flash wiz pro to flash a backup image dat was created wit flash wiz ie .fwz images
use dreamup and null modem cable its a better job
and a ftp program like flashfxp, dats wat most peeps use

[challah]

i believe the image he is trying to load is a backup created by flashwizard
