Ok mate just a guess when using dreamup you have to press connect then flick the box on from a powered off state is this what you did?

thankyou for your promp reply i had the COM port just flashing now as we talk is there anything else i need to do after the flash thats if it works

with the open media do not switch the sat/cab whilst power on it must be turned off at the wall before hand. As suggested tho i would keep trying the reflash with dreamup as this i think is the only way to recover the box when it goes down

oops i posted too late hope you up and running soon
