    take it i need usb device to connect null modem

    Hi folks, decided to try and flash my first box, cause its my mates and i've messed it up some what playing about with factory setting and what not, lost all channels and tried everything that folks have told me in other posts, so i've dowloaded the files from here ie firmware and loader, connected the box with my NEW null modem cable then connected it to the pc using the only connection i can see that the cable will fit, turned on the box then the pc but i cant find the box anywhere, how would i know if the pc recognises the box, i tried going into device manager and looked in com ports but its not there, dont know where else to look, so im taking it i dont have a pc connection for the null modem cable and will have to buy a usb connection, sorry for the novel, but i need help

      there is a tut in downloads (max v guide) have a read and it will help you flash your box. but if you have the latest firmware on it do a power scan using the correct symbol rate for your area 6887 or 6952.
      if i helped hit the thanks btn

        sorry its a digivox silver, but having read the digivox tut it says connect to pc using cable but as i say i only have 1 connection where the null modem can go and dont know if its the right 1, cant flash if my pc cant recognise the box
        found out it should be a rs232 cable and not a null modem

          and heres the connection ya need to connect your rs232 cable to your computer through the usb

          Logilink USB 2.0 A Male to RS232 Male Adapter*::*Cables*::*Skywonder Ltd

          also your computer wont recognise a digivox t, it wont say new device found, you just open the downloader 10 and find the file and download it

            i have dowloader 10 on my pc and have the digivox BIN image, now as i see it when i open up downloader 10 i just make sure i have the correct com/serial port( when i get my conection that is) then add the bin image and thats it flashed
