I see that lamps of ethernet interfaces of my dream stay volatile
without was introduced network cable.

First you should attempt to get the machine back to it's factory settings..

Use your null modem cable to connect Dreambox to you PC
Remove the power from the Dreambox, at the wall outlet.
Start DCC using serial port (not network)
Press and hold down the Dreambox power button while re-connecting the electricity supply

The Dreambox onboard firmware is designed to look at the serial port FIRST, during a power up. If the DCC program detects the Dreambox power-up, a handshake will happen and the DCC program can be used to install a basic factory image.

Once you are at this point, you can assess if the dreambox is knackered or if it was only damaged by the storm.

If the network port is still inoperative, then you will need a replacement box unless you can find spare parts off ebay or from here

i have never seen a replacement Ethernet port for D500 mate..
see if you can get one first from the spares website before throwing your box out..

potentially you could use any ethernet port from the dreambox range, or if you open the box you could get the part number and do a google search.
If you find anything can you let me know as i would like to track down a few parts aswell
