u need 2 download this file and put it on a usb an stick it in. then go to the menu, the last column on the right then transfer the tbn file to the box. this'll take about 10 mins. and i bet u got it from mycable box too! (mine only arrived 2day!)

I've just been at a mates and we found it a prob updating from a USB
we had to down load the file, extract from the zip, copy onto USB then rename it to flash.tbn.
we then popped it into the switched off box, switched it on and only then would it upload on to the box

It is important when changing the file name to flash.tbn IT HAS NO GAPS.
Also delete any other firmware off the pen before putting it into the box.

When you have installed the latest firmware correctly.
Press the menu button and you will see
EUROVOX EX7000 HD+ on the bottom right hand side.
The older fimware didn't have this.

Thanks to everyone that helped on this thread. I had some problems trying to use the Null modem serial cables but with the USB stick is so much easier.
