Would be easier if you use PC with RS232-port & null-modem
cable only. Saves a lot of heartache

Where can i get the flasherase zip file

Just in case you did not do anything with that box & have time to kill.
Use old PC with rs232 port, null modem cable ONLY
Download Dream-up 1.3.2.1
Digital Kaos - Downloads - dreamup 1.3.2.1
Follow Dream-up prompts;
Don't power-up box until prompted to
Say no to FLASH-ERASE when asked.
If no success try diff Dream-up version

I have a dm600c that I'm trying to fix.

It starts but hangs on the PLi Jade image at startup.
It won't take commands from the remote control.

Both green and red lights are on and after a while it reboots.

Can't connect to it via null modem cable.
DreamUp says "Connected, now power up box". When I do, nothing happens. It never recognizes the box.

The box doesn't seem to be getting an IP on my router.

Is there any hope of getting it running again?
Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Managed to flash it using an older computer with a com serial port. (Used USB converter on laptop before).
Not sure what the issue with the remote control was, but it's working again.
