Guys would appreciate help.

I am using Winscp to FTP in to the boxes but for some reason its not working, I have also just download Vu+ control centre and still no.

Have you tired DCC ??

[Garside13]

yeah, nothing seems to be connecting. tried it on all 4 of my boxes. so seems very strange

an example of 1 is:
Primary DNS 192.168.1.254
Secondary DNS 0.0.0.0
IP Address 192.168.1.231
Subnet 255.255.255.0
Gateway 192.168.1.254

You don't say what box you have............But have you tried checking the network test on the box.....just to check its connected to the net

sorry I have Vu Solo, Vu Duo, Vu Duo 2
all networks work as so do ALL the channels not just FTA

Not wanting to insult but you are using Telnet correctly?
On a windows 10 PC
1. Right click on the windows menu icon in the bottom left corner and select 'programs and features'
2. Then click on 'turn windows features on or off'
3. Find 'Telnet client' tick and press OK and exit
4. Open a Command Prompt(admin)
5. Type Telnet and the IP address of your box ie telnet 192.168.1.231
6. It should return 'your box login' ie my says 'Zgemmahs2 Login' type root and press return
7. If it need a password it will ask for it next if it doesn't need a password it will return 'root@your box' ie my says 'root@zgemmah2s:~#'
8. Type your telnet commands for the box to comply with.

Your ip addy seems way out mate

I only use Filezilla........which ask's for the IP address .....username / pass/ port

guess the other software are the same........

Do you have a firewall running........only thing I can think of (blocking you from connecting to them via the software)

Reboot the router for starters
