Flash wizard, is for flashing via LAN not serial/null modem connections.Use dreamup, if you wan't to flash with a null modem cable.

dreamup is the answer never failed me yet

Evening, i am brand spanking new to dreambox,and have been doing much reading on the box,i have seen plenty of people recommending dreamup,is this a specific way to flash or is it the actual firmware i will need to flash the box.is there updated firmware under the dreamup name or is it or one brand fits all??

Finally may i ask where do i find both the firmware and a tutorial?

Regards.

Dreamup is the programme used to flash Dreamboxes with images.
