    You need dreamup software this is the easiest way to flash, connected to pc with null modem cable. Which image is currently on the box and where are you based ?

            everyones got there own preference on image, i use dk on mine and its great. when you go to do the keys i use flash fxp you will need to use an ethernet cable into your router or cross over cable if not http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums...dreambox-1307/

              You could of course put on an image that is complete but you may as well learn how to ftp while your at it

                      right done the image with no problems.
                      went and did a search for transponders and cant find anything.
                      these are the two it is searching which i dont think are right

                            Try this image mate flash with null modem and dreamup say no (nein) to flash erase and do not factory reset, when image is on just scan RapidShare: 1-CLICK Web hosting - Easy Filehosting
