    Genuine DM800 help please

    Hi,

    I have a genuine Dreambox DM800HD currently running Black Hole 0.12 for the last couple of years.

    The trouble is I keep getting the "Sorry, Connection Failed" when trying to update C*ms, settings, plugins etc. - I assume this to be the image as my network is OK.

    Here's a few questions for you guys:

    Seeing as BH 0.12 is a little long in the tooth now - which is the best stable image to use? (excluding PLi - I don't like it)

    How do I find what bootloader & Sim I have?

    Regards

    Hackman

    stick TSpanel on it or get the cam,s in ipk/tgz format and install them yourself via ftp/remote. you can find out what sim/ssl you are running on the oled at boot up,regards mdt

        Don't think tspanel is compatible with that old image, also if you got a genuine Dm like you say then why would you need to worry bout sim and b-l ?

            Just worried in case I screw something up, that's all. Are you saying any would work with my sim and bl? Is there a newer version of nabilo black hole? I had this one for a few years and is been rock solid.

                If it's genuine Dm as you say, you can't use sim2 or Ferrari images, you need to flash a genuine dream multimedia image mate
