Can anyone help we successfully flashed our dbox2 with Commando V12 and copied in the services & bouquets but still cant get any channels.
We don't think the IP and other network settings are correct. Do they change depending on your SP or area?

It's the first time we've tried anything like this so any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

if u got the fta then u need to add the magic files from

No I didn't know you had to set your location. Can you please tell me where you set that. i downloaded the service & bouquets files for North & South Lanarkshire. We're in South Lanarkshire.
