    Skybox F4 keeps rebooting, firmware

    Hi
    I have a skybox F4 which keeps rebooting when getting to 100% when loading up. I think its need new firmware reloading, does anyone have a firmware copy for this box?
    Also will the null modem method work when installing? Thanks in advance.

        That would be a very foolish thing to do

            you can get it off the site just google yojiatech, but you may need a null modem to load it if its booting all the time for repair, a lot of info on here about trying to reflash via null cable, you have to turn the receiver off at the power switch before you start the procedure so it wont be rebooting while its off so maybe the reflash may cure it lot of info here. it sorted my box out good luck

              Thanks jaws2, I googled what you suggested, found the firmware and flashed using the serial port method, worked a treat so far so good
